Pros

I have had over 30 years in major technology companies and this sets the highest standards in people and products of all of them. This usually means that once the potential customer is engaged the products sell themselves. Colleagues are very friendly and there is less politics than any other company I have worked for. The Senior Managers are very loyal to the staff (assuming you maintain the high standards required). If you meet the work ethic and high standards you will do well.

Cons

It has great technology but as a brand is not well known because it has so far primarily sold through partners, although this is changing with an increasing focus on direct sales. If you don't meet the work ethic and high standards you will not enjoy this place or be moved on fairly quickly - but this is stressed in the interview. The demanding environment is not for everyone but there are opportunities to succeed for those with the right mindset.

Pros

Our #1 ranked CSAT and 99.999% platform SLA gets a lot of attention. While we are newer to the US market, our experience globally is very apparent to people who are discovering us.

Cons

Lack of market awareness is challenging at times, but that's the same for any newer brand trying to break into a new region. We are making progress every day and the CCaaS space is starting to notice.

Pros

Good pay (slightly above market)

Cons

- Culture is toxic and overly critical. Management tends to micromanage and fixate on minor issues, while providing little training and expecting you to figure things out on your own. There’s very little support, and the constant scrutiny makes it hard to do your job confidently. - Collaboration is honestly a joke. Coworkers are often reluctant to take ownership of their responsibilities and tend to casually give attitude when you ask them to follow through. Basic teamwork sometimes feels like a challenge. - Feedback is mostly focused on mistakes, with little recognition when you actually do well, which makes it hard to feel valued. Overall, expectations feel inconsistent, and it often seems like no matter what you do, it’s never enough. It’s the kind of environment where morale stays low and people are more focused on avoiding blame than actually doing good work.
