      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nice office catered lunches beer cart Fridays Product is world class Company seems to be on verge of ipo

      Cons

      Laughable base and OTE Almost no people hit customer success and enterprise reps given preferential treatment product management leadership for some reason runs the sales org fake activity in salesforce is rewarded with monthly awards morale is low and depressing people are either riding it out till the ipo or actively looking for new gigs fratty bro culture talented sdrs but for some reason there s a need to hire from the outside

      Great engineering culture

      Engineering team lead
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Product build by engineer for engineer (you actually work on something that directly matter to you) - Very very fast growing company so tons of challenges and interesting engineering challenges to work on (there are no running out of things to do so there are no battle over who works on interesting projects) - Direct impact of your day-to-day on the product and customer-facing - Very good culture (New York office) and social interactions (people hanging out after work / people not acting as stranger in elevator / corridor) - PTO is actually respected (talking about engineering side mostly) as there is a strong French influence and they are not worried about taking a lot of vacation (20-30 days is common)

      Cons

      - Management is young as early employees got promoted as the company was growing but external recruiting is picking up too - I would say lower than average diversity in engineering to other tech companies

      Cons

      Barely any rep hits OTE, almost impossible on current comp plan Huge lack of diversity on sales team Everyone is looking elsewhere for another job, affects morale Management doesn't care about your future career growth, expects people to only last a year in sales
