Pros

Culture. Pay. Flexible schedule. Very doable to make 6 figures as your first job out of college. The people I worked with were very funny and pleasant to be around.

Cons

lack of structure. Company was amazing pre-IPO then as most companies do when they go public- they chance drastically. Revolving door of employees. You feel like a cog in the machine. I know this feeling well because I was told specifically that I was. As I climbed the ranks, I saw people, great employees, be motivated by being told they will be squeezed out if they don't hit their numbers. Thus..... Multiple sales verticals are contacting same business owner 2-3 times a day. Every day. Even when asked to be put on DNC list. Sales reps are encouraged to say ANYTHING to a plumber or electrician to get them to sign on dotted line. It's dishonest at best. Criminal at worst. HR knows their rep has been tattered locally and struggle to get good employees. Most have their resume up and a foot out the door. Even with stupid money, flexible schedules, foosball tables, and all of the "hip", loose structure they like to sell you on- it's not enough. Thus, I left. Best decision of my life. I'll always be appreciative of my experience but would never recommend a friend or family member to work for this company.

Pros

The culture is generally positive, and leadership is accessible. Management is willing to meet with employees and listen to concerns. There are talented people throughout the organization, and the work can be rewarding if you enjoy sales and helping businesses grow.

Cons

The biggest challenge is the compensation structure. The company promotes uncapped commissions, but many employees feel earnings are effectively controlled through continually increasing quotas and changing performance targets. Revenue and nominal goals are adjusted so frequently that it can feel like the finish line is always moving. What's particularly frustrating is that the majority of the sales team often struggles to reach 100% of quota, yet goals continue to rise. This creates the perception that compensation expense is being managed through quota increases rather than by allowing top performers to fully benefit from the revenue they generate. Over time, this can discourage high achievers. Employees who consistently perform well are often expected to deliver significantly more results each year just to maintain the same level of compensation. When exceptional performance is met with ever-increasing targets instead of proportionally increasing rewards, motivation suffers.
