Pros

-My paycheck was generous and always on time - in the beginning the company had a lot of vision and a great culture, they truly invested in the people - career opportunities at that time were promising, later not so much

Cons

- since new CEO took over, it’s been going downhill (not reaching the numbers but also culture changed completely) - the entire leadership team got replaced with a bunch of Americans who are toxic and only care about themselves (awful leadership) - career opportunities became non-existent, communication between departments and amongst them is awful - compensation plans got re-designed over and over to make it harder for people to earn money - work life balance was great, later the work environment became so toxic it was hard to shut off after work - pretty much 80% of all people I worked with (either directly or indirectly) have been laid off or resigned, the company has a super high attrition rate - competition has beat the company long time ago, even Highspot has doubled down in size though they entered the market much later and where behind for many years

Dear former Showpad employee, Thank you for sharing your view. We are sorry to read that your experience at Showpad is not 100% positive and has shifted over the years. Leadership transitions are always challenging, but when it happens in the middle of economic headwinds, it may feel like a lot of change is happening at once. We are confident that the new leaders we’ve onboarded will help us evolve towards becoming a generational company that focuses on both people and performance. While your feedback does not accurately reflect our company performance or most recent employee engagement survey results, we are sorry to read you are no longer on this ride with us. We wish you nothing but the best in your professional and personal life. TA team

Pros

Historically had good pros (but they are disappearing). Still has a very good healthcare plan, good people, and a flexible office policy.

Cons

Lots of big changes with a merger and a PE firm coming in. Many well liked leaders choosing to leave. Processes and strategy disappearing. Communication from leadership becoming less transparent.
