Pros

I wasn't going to review Pythian because I don't have many good things to say about working there, however it's usually best to keep those things private. But reading the last employee 'reviews' that are so blatantly fake, full of the typical Pythian rhetoric and written by HR or senior management really annoyed me. I encourage other Pythian employees to write their own real, unbiased reviews here whether they are positive or negative.

Cons

The biggest problem working here is that at the interview you are sold this vision of Pythian being a fun, open-minded, flexible place to work - but it is not. It feels closer to a dictatorship depending on who you report to.

Pros

Being a sales representative at Pythian has a lot of advantages.: - The leadership team is holistically (ie spanning GTM, delivery, everyone in-between) committed to helping the sales team succeed and bring in new business (everyone wins.) - Our technical resources and SMEs (we sell services here, and do partner heavily with our SMEs during presales) are the brightest in the business, spanning 40+ named data/cloud infra technologies (and many more in the overall braintrust). - Autonomy over your own business ie: if you are achieving your goals people will (mostly) give you leeway do what you need to do to continue selling successfully.

Cons

- Private equity backed organization, so it can feel like we are understaffed pretty frequently. This can slow sales cycles and create CSAT issues. Need to be ready to adapt. - The sales reps at Pythian who find success need to be comfortable being agile, we encounter new situations every day and opportunities/problems rarely fit into a box. Also need to be comfortable taking ownership over situations for the betterment of your customers, pipeline, etc. - Very minimal pipeline generation support.
