Pros

OTE is good, but very few over achieve and the ones that do have a hold out on every good account and then you're always compared to them and made feel like a loser when you dont hit your number.

Cons

What was once a great place to work has been completely ruined by leadership creating a toxic work culture. Your day will consist of being forced to come into one of the worst offices in tech, treated like children and then have to listen to the absolute garbage that comes from leadership. Every IC on the floor has lost faith in them and its now become us Vs them mentality, nobody has a good word to say about them which is a first for many of us. Its as if they've read a "dummies guide to manage sales people" and then completely forgotten everything in it and now they just shout buzz words. You go to them with a problem and they just create more problems, they dont have your back and they dont have a clue how to sell. Dublin is a small place and if you do any research you'll quickly find out that they are so out of their depth in terms of capabilities and its so evident in every meeting, most of them time your bitting your tongue in 1:1's or the calls they come onto because its just car crash tv. The only positive is that everyone feels the same and your lunch's are spent having a good laugh at how abysmal they are their jobs and the stuff that comes out of their mouths, they dont even know what the product does which is embarrassing.

Pros

The product exists and has some market recognition. That’s it.

Cons

The recruitment process is extremely misleading. Managers make it sound like reps are hitting targets effortlessly and excelling from the start, but in reality, none of that support or success exists. The vast majority of reps fail to hit targets, and turnover is extremely high, but leadership frames it as individual failure rather than impossible expectations. Any attempt to provide honest feedback is treated as negativity or “resistance,” creating a culture where people keep their heads down instead of speaking up. Pressure is relentless, micro-management is constant, playbooks are rigid, and success feels more about surviving the system than actually selling. Toxic behaviour is normalised. public praise is dished out for appearances, while blame is quietly shifted onto those who can’t keep up. Promises made during hiring about career development, mentorship, and a happy/enjoyable work place are simply lies.

Pros

Honestly can't give any. Agree with the other honest reviews that it's all smoke and mirrors

Cons

There's an internal push for managers and HR to add positive reviews to counter the negative ones. That should tell you everything you need to know. EMEA leadership is the worst I've ever seen. Either Senior leadership in the US is too inexperienced to see this when hiring them, or they actually want these type of characters in the business. I don't know which one is worse. Doesn't help that the targets are so out of touch with reality. All the good people are now leaving and I'm not surprised. It's just going to get worse and worse. Do yourself a favor and run as fast as you can.
