Pros

Cutting edge product with direct impact on hard dollar benefits to clients. Sales managers were professional and capable leaders in my experience.

Cons

Sales Operations runs the sale org and they are brutal tacticians of constant territory upheaval. A new territory every 6 months, often in completely new industries. Difficult for sales cycles that are 6 to 12 months in length. A couple of RIFs have also decimated the morale.

Pros

Unlimited PTO and smart people, who unfortunately are leaving.

Cons

Sales and technical teams are not always set up to succeed together, which creates unnecessary pressure on technical teams and contributes to burnout. There is a strong focus on growth, but employee retention does not receive the same attention. Compensation is not always competitive, and career advancement processes can feel inconsistent depending on the opportunities available to you. All approvals run up to founder level.
