The number one slimiest, least ethical, and worse thing about Cvent? You will be required to sign a 2 year "bond" (their words). It is basically a two year contract with a "training loan" included. The contract will stipulate repayment of the loan if you quit before two years. This will not be an insignificant amount of money. The training you go through will be almost entirely applicable only to Cvent. The exit process is notoriously rough in part because of the bond and how Senior Management handles it - and yes, Senior Management (the CEO, really) will be involved with your exit process and will fight tooth and nail to extract the money from the quitting employee.
Keep in mind that the quitting employee is likely a year out of college quitting an entry-level telesales or customer support position. Do you know any CEOs who seem to really enjoy fighting 24 years olds over a couple thousand dollars?
They know they have retention issues, but rather than attempt to solve those they try and force employees to stay.
Other than that? The pay is decent, never anything outstanding. The work is very unlikely to be interesting. If you stay you will certainly advance, but that may or may not bring the sense of fulfillment you're looking for. They are growing very quickly and are quite profitable - but they have no match on the 401k.
You will get 3 weeks PTO, which is pretty run of the mill. Not bad or out of the ordinary, but it still sucks to have to take vacation time when you're sick.
You will work long hours. They will micro-manage your hours and your other metrics.
Finally, the company is profitable and growing very fast... which I listed as a pro, but it also a con - Cvent is and will continue to have some growing pains. I'm sure Senior Management will navigate through them eventually, but the ride may well get rougher for the average employee. Of particular interest will be what happens when the first big class of hires hits the 2 year mark and can all suddenly quit without penalty... will there be a mass exodus?
