Pros

-Monthly Zen day -Solid benefits and Parental leave -Co-workers are genuinely good, smart people

Cons

-I would advise not working here unless you are desperate and need a paycheck. The product isn’t good; Sales hasn't closed any new business in months. The PE board has made a series of poor decisions that negatively impact the GTM team. Marketing has zero direction, and the list goes on. -Burnout across the board due to the constant changing of priorities and initiatives. -Sales and Marketing are not aligned in any way, shape, or form. Marketing wants to push the new product, while sales wants to continue selling the legacy product to hit their number. -CRM is a hot mess due to the constant revolving door of operations folks who are either completely undoing what the previous regime did (for better or worse) or fixing an issue the previous regime caused. -Sales leadership doesn’t hold anyone accountable. -Marketing tries a million different strategies and initiatives, but nothing sticks and nothing works at all. -Leadership pushes vanity metrics and numbers to build fake narratives and mask root-cause issues.

Pros

- New product vision and strategy that builds on history of artificial intelligence and solving specific use cases - Incredible culture of collaboration and kind people who like to solve problems - Huge vision for growth that challenges the status quo and is willing to take risks and make mistakes - Remote first environment allows for flexibility - So many things are changing and opportunities for growth. If you can figure out a solution you can go after it which is a career trajectory changing opportunity.

Cons

- There has been a lot of change in the transformation and periods where it has been unclear of the path. Uncertainty and fast paced environment isnt for everyone. - Remote first environment is a pro but can be a challenge when driving change because things can get lost in translation

Pros

Amazing team members Great marketing leadership Highly intelligent people

Cons

Company is in a rapid decline. Multiple layoffs since November 2025, no real grasp on strategy. Sales and marketing are on complete different pages - marketing is working the new product, sales doesn't want to sell it (which is what they've been measured on) Amazing marketing leadership, but stay far away until the company can figure out what's next.
