Pros

Beautiful offices. Good pay & benefits. Some nice people.

Cons

Worst place I’ve worked in my 20-year career. Fake people abound who will not hesitate in stabbing you in the back at the first opportunity. Bad/unclear/nonexistent GTM strategy and unclear PMF makes it really difficult for sellers to differentiate the product from lower priced competitors in the market and sales leaders are unable to coach them to do so, preferring to put them on PIPs rather than help solve the root cause. Dysfunctional HR/People team causes chaos across the business with poor processes, bad hiring decisions and high turnover, particularly in sales. Insane bureaucracy for a relatively small 2,000 person company with a million approvals, Asana tasks, and convoluted workflows needed to get anything done or even communicate with other teams (no email tolerated). Weirdly absent founder/CEO who lets his direct reports wreak havoc across the business with seemingly little consequences. Entire sales & marketing leadership is ex-Salesforce and bringing their typical arrogance and bluster to an already broken org, further accelerating its demise.

Pros

There's real enduring culture where people care about doing really good work. The culture is friendly with strong camaraderie amongst the individual employees, and managers try to do right by their reports.

Cons

Quarterly reorgs, quiet role reductions, and slowly stripping away benefits has made morale worse than ever. It may have been worthwhile if the business was getting better, but it's pretty flat and attrition is very high. With the introduction of the new CEO, Dan Rogers, there's been a clear shift to hard capitalism and people as numbers. Problems have been solved in short-sighted ways, causing discontent even within the leadership ranks. The company was losing some steam beforehand, but now it's "a ship trying to make a sharp turn and keeling over, just barely not capsizing".
