Pros

- work/life balance - between SDRs, marketing and alliances, reps get a great amount of leads - CEO, CFO and other C level execs, as well as other leaders in the company are always willing to help win a deal

Cons

- Payout is directly connected to implementation managers and how quickly they can get customers ramped. Unfortunately, this division is ran very poorly and leadership will not make the changes necessary to improve the overall success of this division, which means that reps dont get paid on deals closed for up to 2 years or longer - Upon leaving the company, any payout that is owed to dales reps will not be completed, so as a sales rep, you can leave a lot of money on the table - Solutions Consultant support has become average at best and managers offer little to no help. - Communication between product and sales is very slow. deals will be lost due to missing features, only to later find out that we have solutions in place but sales and SCs dont get visibility into that - SDRs are rewarded for wrong behavior, so many unwinnable deals come in and sales team is forced to qualify them but they close lost soon after that. Making SDR org look great but sales team not so much.

Pros

Good people. My direct manager was excellent and very supportive. Free lunch when in office. Health benefits are okay.

Cons

There have been numerous layoffs, and overall it feels incredibly unstable. The product has a lot of issues, which makes the onboarding role much harder than it needs to be. When deadlines are missed, leadership tends to blame the onboarding team, even when you’re doing everything you’re supposed to and the challenges are outside your control. It doesn't help that the Product has a lot of issues, and leadership will push on us to sell on more product features, that will make implementation even longer and the features are not ready to be used by customers. Sales regularly overpromises to customers, then avoids accountability when those expectations can’t realistically be met. Most process changes seem to benefit Sales while making onboarding even more difficult. Pay is below industry standard, and as a result, many of the strong employees don’t stick around for long. While my coworkers are great, it seemed like everyone was miserable. Always complaining about customers, leadership, turnover, layoffs, low pay, and questionable policies. It's not a healthy work environment, and leadership needs to introduce changes immediately if they want to attract and retain talent. Performance is heavily data-driven, which isn’t inherently a bad thing. However, evaluations tend to focus too narrowly on metrics like average implementation time, without fully considering the many factors outside an employee’s control that impact results. As a result, overall performance and contributions don’t always feel fairly assessed.
