Pros

Great product Team members, majority are amazing folks

Cons

Leadership team are embarrassingly weak, they should be ashamed of themselves All afraid to make tough decision and or say what they really think. Company is run on fear Pass the book mentality If I ignore the problem long enough it should go away Wait until we hire XYZ they’ll deal with issues ABC CEO has a thought, everyone jumps, PQLs, it’s all of a sudden about PQLs, he didn’t know what they were a week ago. CMO hires a consultant to know what to do, has to approve everything, bottleneck, overpowering and creativity stifling environment.

Pros

Great benefits and great people to work with. The product itself is a great and superior product.

Cons

No training. No pipeline. No real support for SMB. You are basically a glorified SDR. Any real leads come from events or if you have good install base accounts. Hardly any good inbounds come and and if you do get a good and decent size inbound, they take it away from you to give to a mid-market rep. The juice isn't worth the squeeze. If you don't mind constantly grinding, go for it. Otherwise, I would recommend looking else where.
