Pros

Fantastic company culture and benefits Helpful teammates and leadership Exciting and fast growing industry Fun to work for such a highly acclaimed company

Cons

The BDR role is a grind and it's not the most fun day-to-day. The perks of the company and the people helped, but if you do not want to go into the Account Exec role or Customer Success role, I wouldn't suggest doing the BDR role. Very low base compensation - not realistic to hit the OTE that they say in the interview process.

Pros

Phenomenal company culture, unlimited PTO actually encouraged, solid onboarding structure, great pay, incredible benefits especially for parents.

Cons

Extremely diverse tech stack that can be difficult to master. CSM roles involve significant strategic guidance beyond normal role expectations. Workload can vary significantly based on which clients you receive.

Pros

Braze has many smart, kind, and talented people, and I had the chance to work with colleagues who genuinely cared about doing good work. The company also gave me opportunities to grow and lead programs at scale. The product is respected, the customer base is impressive, and there are still teams doing excellent work despite the broader challenges.

Cons

The company became increasingly frenetic, with shifting priorities, unrealistic goals, and too much work happening without clear ownership or coordinated strategy. Decisions often felt reactive, and teams responsible for execution were not consistently included early enough in planning. There was also a growing emphasis on visibility, internal process, and last-minute requests, which made it harder to focus on thoughtful work or build sustainable programs. The experience can vary significantly by team and manager. Strong performers may find themselves rewarded with more volume rather than more influence, while organizational changes and unclear direction can make it difficult to understand how decisions are being made.
