Pros
Talented and collaborative peers — many genuinely great people on the sales team Flexibility in remote/hybrid work (depending on role) Strong product offering with market potential Opportunity to gain experience in a fast-paced, venture-backed environment
Cons
Leadership frequently interferes with deals over a certain size, often creating more problems than solutions Heavy micromanagement (daily forecasting updates, constant commit meetings) Performance improvement plans used as punitive tools rather than developmental support Compensation lags industry benchmarks; raises are rare and not market competitive High turnover and morale issues across the sales team Lack of trust in sales staff, leading to a culture of pressure rather than empowerment
