Sales…think twice

Pros

-free lunch when office is open

Cons

Here are just a few to consider if you are thinking about joining the sales team - look at all the positive reviews…none of them are sales -HR begs employees to leave positive reviews to “balance” the negative ones - if you are a top performer, don’t bother. The last thing on their priority list is keeping top talent..that’s why they all left. - make sure to ask how many reps are hitting OTE (in the last 2 years) in the interview process…that should be a major red flag for you - diversity is non existent - the pay is the worst in the industry. You can make more as a manager at a fast food place than you will here - when in doubt, run for the hills

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and concerns. Your experience is not what we want for our employees, especially not one I want for members of our Sales organization. As the new Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) at Egnyte, I will be responsible for all sales functions globally moving forward. Hearing from the team and understanding what we can do better moving forward is one of my top and immediate priorities. If you're willing to connect directly, I'd like to learn more about your experience. My door is always open - Stan Hansen (CRO)

Great Product, Poor Execution

Recommend

Pros

There are some genuine people who really care about the company and their work. There is always a lot to learn and grow. Leadership is personable and approachable. Product is best of class! CEO is transparent, even when not happy (I appreciate this). Sales Engineers are solid.

Cons

Frankly, so many people seem to be obsessed with starting initiatives just for the sake of doing something to keep their jobs. There is a lot of wasted dev time for underdeveloped ideas. Marketing leadership is not aligned with sales which causes a lot of unneeded confusion and conflicting processes. While the product is GREAT, the business does not make it easy to sell. It's wild how much complexity people can add for so little benefit here.
