      If Corporate Pomp & Circums

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good perks, cool office, great tech

      Cons

      The perks are there to keep people in office longer. Upper level staff is not kind, wishy washy, creates unnecessary obstacles.

      UNETHICAL CIRCUS

      Customer success manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Office is nice and modern. Feels “cool,” but mostly just a distraction to make you give your soul to this place.

      Cons

      - Pay is a joke. CS does the work of account managers/sales reps but gets barely anything beyond a tiny bonus, even when you bring in more revenue than actual sales reps. - Management is completely clueless. Dictatorial, threatening, and obsessed with metrics while completely ignoring employees. - Everything is “mandatory.” Meetings, trainings, SKOs, they track attendance like it’s a game, no exceptions for being sick or having a disability. Absolutely illegal. - SKO sessions were pure theater. Mandatory attendance is scanned and points counted, not learning or growing. - The in-office policy is insane. No flexibility at all. - Most of the glowing 5-star reviews you see? Probably bots. No context, no real insight. Don’t trust them. - Turnover rate is INSANE, but guess what? You can’t find this information anywhere.
