Pros

Great place to work for. Lots of smart people to learn from. Huge potential ahead.

Cons

100% busy, lots of customers interested but the team does not scale fast enough. Sense of unfairness is huge in this place, Field engineering RSU is almost 50% those of Software engineering, unlike any other place, that makes me think if I made the right decision to join this team.

Pros

- great people - amazing product that sells itself once people get their hands on it - innovative company - decent ote and benefits

Cons

- comp plan this year for hunters is not aligned with company strategy of focusing on larger, multi-year commits. it incentivizes quantity of deals vs. quality of deals, and payouts on commit $$$ are peanuts.
