- Relaxed work environment - Pace is slow, not a lot of urgency generally - Interesting technical problems when I joined, but given recent technology shifts this may no longer be the case - The pay to work ratio is good, even though you may be below market slightly

Cons

- Lack of career growth. The promotion process was difficult to navigate and the requirements were unclear - Restructuring and churn, every year I worked here I had a new manager -

Pros

Competitive compensation and decent earning potential depending on segment. Opportunity to manage complex deal cycles. Broad product suite allows for cross-sell and solution-based selling. Active founder-led company

Cons

Poor management quality and leadership decisions can impact morale. Culture can feel less dull and lack energy especially compared to faster-growing tech companies. Selling the product can feel little exciting. Internal processes and decision-making can feel bureaucratic.
