Pros

Great product, cool people, nice perks

Cons

company is constantly making changes with 0 explanation and always saying "you need to expect changes in a start up space!" while completely screwing you over. Completely micro-managed; forced to come into the office even if you are not feeling well, they also make excuses on the "optional work from home days" that make it not optional No upfront pay for deals - Comp plan changes happen monthly and quotas are constantly being raised most reps do not see commission checks until 2 months into the quarter and when they explain how it is stressing them out they are being told to "budget better" Employees with tenure get fed - they get leadership roles and run teams even though they are completely under qualified; they have a few recent hires that they use for examples of "meritocracy" culture even though most if not all leaders have been with the company for over 2 years If you want to be in a true sales role this is not the place

Pros

Competitive compensation and strong benefits package. The coworkers and frontline teams are one of the company’s greatest strengths many are incredibly hardworking, supportive, and committed to helping both customers and teammates succeed.

Cons

Significant operational gaps continue to impact efficiency and employee experience. Reporting systems and workforce planning frequently feel disconnected from the realities of day-to-day operations. Employees and leaders are often expected to be accountable for metrics without reliable reporting or clear guidance on how those metrics are measured. Workload distribution can feel inconsistent, creating an environment where some teams and managers become overextended while others are underutilized. This contributes to burnout, frustration, and a lack of confidence in operational decision-making.
