Pros

I wish there were pros to mention other than making friends that will last for a while. I would highly recommend choosing who you talk to very carefully if you do decide to choose this company as your employer.

Cons

You will be paid far less for the work you do vs. what you should be paid, you will be more stressed in the environment they have here (as opposed to several other IT-related or AI-based companies), and you will never feel the proper satisfaction or happy feeling as an employee who thinks they are leaving a great impact on others when you start to learn about the company's past. Simply put, if you choose to work here, I wish you the best but you will need to de-stress more than you ever have in your life.

Pros

Autonomy & Independence: You get great autonomy to build your own schedule. It operates very much like a true field sales motion, which is great if you value independence. Perks: There is a high degree of expense freedom, and the Sales Kickoffs are a definite highlight.

Cons

The company is currently gasping for air and is super misaligned. There is absolutely no sense of direction. The Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy obviously doesn't work because leadership changes strategy it every Half because of poor performance . Turnover is INCREDIBLY HIGH, people was congratulating me that I made it at Darktrace more than a year when I left, which is never a good sign for a company. CEO REPVUE- stated that only 15% of reps hit their goal attainment at Darktrace from it's reviews. If you apply here, you need to know exactly what you are getting into and be willing to work extremely hard just to help dig the company out of a hole.
