Beautiful cover, nothing much inside.

Pros

- Free snacks. - Insurance. - Transportation cover. - Good office facilities. -Good office location. - Fun events. -Many holidays.

Cons

-The pay is extremely low. Most of the people that leave for similar roles to the other companies get 50% + their salaries. -No matter how hard you try and study- moving to a different role is pure luck. Often, instead of promoting you for your hard work and dedication, they would hire a new person from outside. These things demotivate a lot. -Very different standards. They celebrate everything, except Christmas (correct: Winter Holiday). Especially in US offices. I've heard stories about how people were reported to HR for having different Christmas attributes. -The first two years were fun. But then they started putting politics everywhere. You'd have big screens (in DUBLIN office) showing US President's approval rates. Which politician said what and so on. Of course, it all goes one way and only one opinion is welcomed. NO POLITICS at work is preferred (at least in the offices outside of the US).

Pros

Free food and snacks and all the fancy Syllicon Valley toys for you in the office.

Cons

Micro-management from unprepared and unprofessional management makes the task of talking to customers a very annoying obligation. Be prepare to defend your solution to customer about functions that this tool does not do at all. High management does not really care about the product and improvements of the software which is rarely discussed into thousands of meetings you are supposed to attend.Don't even think about any change when you start as if you do so you will be "Terminated"...this is how they call!..Being a "YES SIR" to everything even if you are 100% sure it is a wrong B2B practice at the Enterprise Level.

Pros

Great benefits, some of the best colleagues I've ever had, lots of social activities

Cons

I used to think I was well paid for my role, but after moving to a different org I realised I was well underpaid. Management in Sales is toxic and they're all for the same type of culture (rewarding employees who had sneaky sales techniques and steal accounts from other colleagues, micromanagement galore, belittling employees during team meetings, etc). Managers don't like it when you take paid time off and expect you to be available for them after working hours.
