Pros

there was free food and drinks

Cons

- I had "feedback" talks 3x a week which was more of micromanagement - phone calls were recorded without consent of the prospects and after listened by someone that has never worked in sales to then give you feedback about the calls - only a 1,5 day onboarding to understand the product - i was meant to start in a different position and also signed the contract to then be downgraded and didn't do the job I signed up for. I then was told they are not looking for this position anymore but they put me on a list to consider me moving up again (?!!) - was already looking for a new job 1 week into it

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are sorry to hear that certain aspects of your role with Agicap did not meet your expectations. At Agicap, we aim to foster a supportive culture of open feedback and continuous development. We are investing heavily in the onboarding of our new employees and as a result conduct very regular feedback sessions throughout the first weeks. However, we understand that frequent feedback sessions can sometimes feel overwhelming, and we are working to find the right balance to ensure that our feedback supports growth without feeling like micromanagement. Regarding call recording, we strive to ensure all practices, respect privacy and contribute to effective training. We are strongly rejecting your allegations and continue to commit to adhere to data privacy laws. We are also sorry to hear about your experience with onboarding and role changes. At Agicap, we want every employee to succeed in their role. For some positions, we believe it can be beneficial to spend time in adjacent roles in order to gain a deeper understanding of the team’s overall structure and responsibilities (not more than 2 weeks). Thank you again for your feedback. Insights like yours are invaluable as we continue to make improvements that benefit both our team and our customers.

Pros

- People: lots of young and smart people with tremendous potential - Product: great PMF and clear growth trajectory (recent US launch as a practical example) - Growth: both company and career, with lots of senior leaders starting as individual contributors; lots of opportunities to move to different teams, with clear prioritization of internal mobility/career progression - Lisbon office: 2x in size in 2025 and more to come in 2026, so good place to work from with lots of opportunity and growth - Knowledge: you get to work directly with CFO/Finance Directors, allowing you to learn and grow your financial knowledge

Cons

As with everything in life, there are always areas of improvement, but I've been here for less than a year and so far, nothing to point out

Pros

Great place to start a career in sales, as you are given a lot of autonomy early on. You are also given the opportunity to speak with large companies, and the CFOs within these companies. There is a lot of high quality exposure. The tech stack is also really solid from a sales perspective.

Cons

Nothing major, a bit more stability in processes etc would have been desirable.
