Pros

Remote working and coworkers on the sales team are mostly cool

Cons

Poor management High staff turnover in leadership Sales people always made to feel like they’re getting fired any day Commission payments can take over 2 years. The sales cycle is long (1year typically) and then 6 or more months of onboarding and 3-6 months after go-live you’ll get a payment. During which time the commission plan will be updated and reduced. This happens every year. Few sales people last long enough to earn commission and the entire US sales team cycles out every 2 years.

Thanks so much for sharing this! Really appreciate you taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. It’s great to hear that the support from leadership and the team is coming through and that you feel trusted and able to grow in your role; that’s something we really care about maintaining as we scale. Totally fair point on processes evolving too; we’re very much in that build-and-improve phase, so feedback like this helps us keep moving in the right direction. And love the note to management, we’ll pass that on 😊
