Pros

Amazing leadership and vision for the company. The focus on being a cloud native platform was the perfect decision from the beginning. Great sales leadership team to help pre-sales engineers understand the art of the sale. Lots of growth opportunities within the company for ICs. Best pre-sales team I've ever worked with (SAs and AEs).

Cons

Common growing pains when scaling from an early startup to a large startup, e.g. compensation reviews and learning about internal career opportunities. However, these have improved significantly since we've hired our CPO.

Pros

- great people - amazing product that sells itself once people get their hands on it - innovative company - decent ote and benefits

Cons

- comp plan this year for hunters is not aligned with company strategy of focusing on larger, multi-year commits. it incentivizes quantity of deals vs. quality of deals, and payouts on commit $$$ are peanuts.
