Pros

Great technology. One of the industry leaders for SEO platforms

Cons

Insane, unbelievable micromanagement My serious advice is please do not work here in sales. If you do you'll see what I'm talking about very quickly. If you don't listen, at least the good news is looking back you'll have lots of material for laughs

Floundering to an IPO

Pros

New logos sales team is a machine. The only exception to the cons. Two stars for the company it was when I started.

Cons

For a company that is fundamentally a technology provider for a marketing platform, they’ve understaffed the engineering teams and hired too few people with a background in SEO and digital marketing. Customers no longer see BrightEdge as a clear winner or see the expected ROI from the investment, which is reflected in renewals. Even worse, the CEO is obsessed with IPO and is making the classic mistakes: hiring too many SVPs/VPs with little relevant experience, micromanaging, too few doers to get things done, endless talks of reorganization, and deprioritizing the human support and services available to customers. Take a look again in a year. By then the current crop of management should have “moved on” and the company might be ready to perform as a successful business rather than a pre-IPO machine.
