Pros

We have a lot of fun on the company dime

Cons

I've never made less $ as a sales rep in over 10yrs even though I grew my customer over 100% YoY growth. DO NOT GO TO WORK FOR A BUNCH OF TECHNOLOGIST. THEY DON'T VALUE SALES PEOPLE AND DON'T WANT TO PAY THEM WELL !!! CEO is greedy!

Pros

- great people - amazing product that sells itself once people get their hands on it - innovative company - decent ote and benefits

Cons

- comp plan this year for hunters is not aligned with company strategy of focusing on larger, multi-year commits. it incentivizes quantity of deals vs. quality of deals, and payouts on commit $$$ are peanuts.
