Pros

- Very smart leadership including founder and CTO who is pushing business forward - Smart colleagues - Top tools to utilize for selling - Decent name recognition with customers - Remote first with great benefits - Generous ramp comp structure

Cons

- Poor pivot to AI outcomes and lack of buy-in from customers for purchasing credits. - Stock price and outlook has fallen significantly which makes any RSUs nearly worthless - Poor training for new hires. You have to learn yourself the product, pitch, how to demo, new features that launch weekly with little to no guidance. They have made changes, so maybe you have a better setup today. - Understandably heavy focus on tenured reps getting the best accounts. - Quota is unattainable for most unless you get lucky with teammates going on leave or leaving the company. Most new hires that succeeded this was the case. - In my opinion, unless you have a strong background in martech, you will struggle.

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
