Pros

Great benefits and office in Bell Works. Great place to learn the SAAS industry if you don't mind being overloaded with work.

Cons

With company for 4+ years and was planning on staying for 10+ years before Vista came into the picture. Very overworked for low pay (Left the company for the same position elsewhere for a 25% bump in pay with same (if not better) benefits and much less of a workload). So much politics it becomes very frustrating to make real change. Pride themselves on internal opportunities yet resort to outside hires over internal consistently causing good talent to leave. Once Vista took majority control over the company in 2018/2019 the company started to deteriorate. New board seems like corporate robots who care more about the bottom line then their employees. What was once a great unique (privately owned and ran) place to work has become a cut throat corporate tornado of disorganization with an uncertain future. Former CEO/founder used to pride himself on never having layoffs even during tough times then there were multiple rounds of layoffs in 2020 under Vista's appointed board. Company claims it was due to covid-19 but the timing of it seemed very convenient to let go of a large percentage of the company. Many employees laid off were with the company for years.

Pros

My team was very committed to our customers and very collaborative with each other. Everyone was kind to each other, and historically there had been opportunities for mentorship and career development.

Cons

Unclear expectations from leadership. We always felt like we were trying to play catch up with how things were changing. We also always felt like we were underpaid.
