      Pros

      Good work life balance, flexible working, free lunch. Innovative, leading and niche speech technology. Lots of clever people and a dynamic thought-leadership environment.

      Cons

      Dogmatic and self-interested sales leadership does not drive a culture of success and winning as a team. Ironically, one of their values is "Care Deeply" which they pay lip-service to, but ultimately they treat people very badly. Small company with long-tenure sales management so no career progression. Half-baked commission structure and lead generation.

      Thank you for taking the time to feedback. I'm pleased to see that the work life balance, and flexibility was a key positive for you. We're certainly proud of our product and it's broad application - the use cases are endless! We're moving towards a slick commercial commercial GTM engine and are proud of the steps we have taken. We've brought on board Lauren King (New VP Marketing) and Simon Gilks (New VP RevOps) who are working to build out our commercial approach, development and progression more broadly. We are excited to continue to see this department continue to develop positively.

      Pros

      The company culture Flexibility for those not living near HQ Work incentives The customers we work with

      Cons

      Sometimes, being we have employees around the globe, there are tough barriers for communicating in a timely manner... but, this is with most international b2b organizations.

      Pros

      It's great to get sell a world class product that WOWs people in every demo. The team is supportive of one another, NO POLITICS and fun. Unfortunately I'm remote so I only get to have fun vicariously as I see invites for all I'm missing. We actually listen to customers and work with them for success. It's a great place to learn knowing you'll be supported even if you make a mistake.

      Cons

      Like many companies our size, we are busy putting scalable processes in place to make us more efficient. Being remote, sometimes it's hard to stay up on what's happening in the office. These process improvements are doing a lot to make this better.
