Pros
- Co-workers are mostly smart, interesting, fun people to work with - Unlimited PTO - for real, no tracking - "Feel Good" product to sell
Cons
- Product hasn't changed in 10 years. HR teams see ALEX as a "nice to have", they take meetings with Jellyvision every year and then don't buy because the price doesn't match the value of the product. - No cohesive go-to-market strategy - You can only sell one quarter a year because of seasonality. So you only get commission one quarter a year. - Sales leadership had major turnover in 2019, lack of transparency in what was actually happening - Pay is way below market rate. As an Enterprise Account Executive my variable compensation was only $25,000 for hitting goal. Which is very hard to do. - Sales quotas were not based on previous years performance, they really didn't tell us what they were based on. They wouldn't admit that goals were unrealistic - Only a few people even get close to goal every year - Little job security within in the sales department with constant turnover
