Pros

Sko and bootcamp were fun

Cons

I was fortunate to work here during late 21’ and early 22’ before the mass migration when leaders and top performers left. During the summer when a ton of AEs went to competitors it became clear that TA will not be the market leader in corporate cards or expense. At the same time the leaders who left were replaced with middle of the pack ICs who didn’t want to have a quota. Now sdrs are poorly enabled and have no idea how to source or who to source as customers leaving AEs responsibly for sourcing a majority of their own opps. With a goal of hitting a 12b valuation to finally go public, TA is hiring like crazy to combat the high turnover and get their ARR high enough to reach that valuation. I genuinely feel bad for new hires that are being promised a culture that no longer exists by managers who are consciously ignoring a major change in the early 2023 roadmap that will make their jobs and lives stressful and uncomfortable

Pros

Competitive compensation and strong benefits package. The coworkers and frontline teams are one of the company’s greatest strengths many are incredibly hardworking, supportive, and committed to helping both customers and teammates succeed.

Cons

Significant operational gaps continue to impact efficiency and employee experience. Reporting systems and workforce planning frequently feel disconnected from the realities of day-to-day operations. Employees and leaders are often expected to be accountable for metrics without reliable reporting or clear guidance on how those metrics are measured. Workload distribution can feel inconsistent, creating an environment where some teams and managers become overextended while others are underutilized. This contributes to burnout, frustration, and a lack of confidence in operational decision-making.
