Pros

I think the salary was at market rate, although I get the impression that the salary is inconsistent across employees in the same role.

Cons

Think twice if you’re thinking of joining the WFO team at Five9 EMEA. Ignore all the hype and “great place to work” awards as you won’t experience a great culture, you will be left alone and dropped into projects as they’re desperate for resource. The UK WFO team is a silo and it’s going to take massive changes including a restructure, and a re-work of most processes to solve this. Expect to work weekends to deploy customer solutions, but no TOIL or overtime. Don’t expect any onboarding or training, if you get some it will be a bonus. You will get told it’s a family, it’s a start-up. Work is not a family (unless you run your own family business), and the start-up comments are just excuses for it being a mess. If you’re joining the sales team, I think you will be fine as they seem to have a great experience.

Pros

Pay is above market standard

Cons

Not a very structured environment - Needs a lot of change in overall team development, training & coaching and team bonding activities. You might have to work on your own sometimes as you would be left alone to do the job. Less focus on employee satisfaction and more focus on customer satisfaction
