Pros

Free lunch mwf for HQ employees Flexible tine off

Cons

Unless you are an Engineer, do not apply here. Upper management has little insight or care about the work environment of customer facing roles, routinely asking employees to work 11+ hour days to try and accomplish the 16+ hours worth of work assigned to try and run the company at the pace upper management desires. Middle management achieved roles based on tenure at the company, not necessarily from performance. Company morale is low very little work life balance is a contributing factor. VERY high turnover.

Pros

Good company benefits - private healthcare, employee stock purchase programme Annual sales kickoff

Cons

All calls & emails are now monitored. Graded & tracked on your calls. New requirement is now to have 50+ calls a month recorded in Gong (Gong was previously phased out but now a requirement). Pay rises are low, false promises each year of promotions & generous pay rises Team members favoured over others Work life balance now near on impossible with all the new asks put in place
