Pros

If you are someone who is okay with settling for less, or the bare minimum especially if you are based outside of the US and in a contract role then this company is for you.

Cons

1. Overworked underpaid - They demand that you be productive while handling multiple channels like Chat, Email, and Phone (Equivalent of up to 3 people workload for just one person) at a time but they can only afford to pay you equivalent to a one persons work 2. Toxic Management and Over-Micromanaging - The Manager will demand you to acknowledge announcements, demand that you have to do this and that, and be very responsive on DM's, but when you ask for help on escalated cases they are hiding and very unresponsive on DM's. Management always brags during meetings that we are a family but the gaslighting and toxicity are a nightmare. What they tell employees are the absolute opposite of how they treat them especially to contractors outside of the US. 3. No work-life balance - If you are a contractor outside of the US, you are only entitled to get paid PTOs which already includes sick leave (10 Days) after 1 year of service 4. Pure bias and discrimination against contractors (Outside of the US especially for entry-level roles like onboarding specialist and tier 1 support agents) - The manager based in the US dared to ask for me to have a backup internet connection but could not offer us the USD 80 monthly remote allowance, while employees based in the US, JP, and IN enjoys the said monthly allowance. 4. Not competitive salary - Dialpad only offered me 33% less than my previous salary which is very low and rubbish, gut-wrenching (And HR says it's non-negotiable), plus the workload is an absolute nightmare.

Pros

Definitely one of those tech jobs that you can call “full-time” but do in 5-10 hours/week and pick up another job. Thats about it for pro’s.

Cons

Been here a few yrs and have had 5 different managers. I hit quota about 1 quarter per yr which hasn’t got me fired because I get a new boss every 8 months (they all leave or get canned when the CEO changes the vision…again). Last month on an all-hands he said “if you want a work life balance, don’t work here” - which is hilarious and ironic because tons of reps make more at their other “real job” and he has no clue. The culture is annoying at best, toxic at worst. We have had like 1400 FTE’s for the last 3 yrs, over 1200 new hires in the past 12 months, the turnover is insane. I’m resigning this month so being super authentic here. Pay is below market value. The product is good…until the vision changes and we “have to sell” the new stuff. Genuinely feel bad for people who get hired here and it’s their only job.
