Fun culture with great coworkers and good benefits

Cons

Company’s a sinking ship. Leadership is incompetent. Sales enablement is a joke. Zero consistency.

Thank you for sharing your candid feedback – your insights are invaluable as we strive to create a better workplace for everyone. We recognize that actions speak louder than words, and we are dedicated to making meaningful changes. Our leadership team is committed to continuous improvement and has already started initiatives to enhance communication (Forums, Ask Me Anything, Fireside Chats) and provide a better vision (recently published Sales Playbook and Ops Strategy), so there is a clarity among employees where we are heading.

We understand that the recent layoffs have been challenging for everyone, and we deeply regret the impact this has had on our employees and their families. This was a difficult decision made after thorough consideration of our current business needs and future goals. We are actively working to grow our business and invest further in areas that support that growth.
