Pros

The business is evidently successful and cash rich to experiment across all global markets. The sales team and leadership is exceptional and very knowledgeable in their area.

Cons

Marketing is led by one of the most inexperienced leader with no experience in marketing causing major lack of judgement. The Marketing EVP has managed to grow internally from department to department lacking real knowledge of growing, marketing or revenue generation in a B2G environment but she is exceptionally good in managing up.

Pros

Good benefits, good direct managers depending on the team, and good PTO policies.

Cons

Leadership is increasingly combative, and choosing not to measure burnout effectively, yet making it more pervasive with intensifying workloads due to AI usage. Forced return to office where it doesn’t make a lot of sense. Glorifying the sales team without focusing enough on foundational tech improvements. Growing too fast through acquisitions without clear plans for sharing standards between systems. Purchasing new services and products takes an enormous amount of work when all teams including those responsible for department budgets agree the purchase is necessary. Engineering teams feel forgotten in most company updates, and focus is almost entirely on the sales team, when half the company is engineering.
