Pros

- EMEA team is truly unique - a team of A-players all with different experiences and backgrounds and all wanting to support and make each other better. Culture of openness and inclusivity, from my first day I felt like a valued part of the team. - The role is challenging but that's what I came for - and I feel I'm learning at an incredible rate, stepping out of my comfort zone and also honing my sales skills with the help of our amazing GTM team and sales training (as well as peer to peer learning) - Career progression - Given the scale up environment, there's some great opportunity to get involved in not only proving yourself in-role, but also getting in front of senior leadership and getting involved in interesting projects/initiatives that help grow and shape the business - Sales role - It's constantly taking shape for the better. Targets are doable, there's a bit effort to upskill and empower individuals, everyone is willing to help. Overall, of course you need to put in the work, but there's a tonne of commission to be had in return. :)

Cons

Sales specific - 3 months ago I would have said partner channel and lack of processes. But both of these are priorities at the moment and will soon no longer be gaps! At company level - It's a scale up so naturally things move very quickly, some things are still taking shape while other areas are in transition. I will admit coming from a 'well oiled machine' before, it took a bit of getting used to the chaos. The environment and natural growing pains is definitely not for the lazy or those afraid of getting a bit uncomfortable. But if you're up for that challenge, then there's really no cons. No regrets here!

Pros

Some smart, ambitious people who you can learn a lot from.

Cons

This place is an unstable, toxic mess, and leadership is largely to blame. The C-suite is full of egos and seems to make goals and quotas up out of thin air, then cleans up the fallout from poor planning and overhiring with layoffs. There have been three company-wide mass layoffs in less than four years, and that doesn’t even include the many layoffs that have happened quietly behind closed doors. The toxicity at the top trickles down through the entire organization. VPs put pressure on middle management, who then pass that pressure on to ICs. The company can’t seem to keep leaders in place for more than six months, which creates constant chaos and confusion. Strategies are always changing, priorities shift every few months, and nothing ever sticks long enough to make a real impact. Promotions seem to be based more on politics, favoritism, and who can make the most noise than on actual performance. The same people get promoted year after year, and many of them seem underqualified for the titles they hold. If you’re good at self-promotion and have the right relationships, you’ll probably do fine. If you’re quietly doing great work, don’t expect the same recognition. HR keeps saying they’re working on improving the promotion process, but I haven’t seen much change. If you’re considering joining the GTM org (especially the operational side) I would think twice. The new leadership loves to talk about transformation, improvements, and exciting changes, but there’s usually very little follow through behind the messaging.
