Pros

co workers are nice! that's about it...

Cons

Commissions have been wrong every single month. Who knows how many thousands they have shorted me while I've been here. No one is hitting quota, and nothing is being done about it. The record breaking AM team was dissolved, seemingly on a whim, and now everyone is an AE with a tiny territory and an even smaller book. There is zero transparency on anything, or why certain changes are being made. They just try to gaslight you into thinking this is the best thing that could happen. CEO openly says he doesn't really care about employees, and it shows in the way he interacts (or doesnt even acknowledge more like) us, other than to crack the whip. There is no clear expectations of what we are supposed to do; it's like we are AEs, CSMs, AMs and more all in one. They systems are also non-existant. To get anything done or find any answer you have to ask multiple people who just say 'go ask someone else'. Also none of the tech/sales benefits exist here. No swag, no fun things, in office 8-5 every day with very little exception. You have to sneak out even if it's for approved PTO. I've been in sales for 6 years and this is by far the worst place I've ever worked. Even though it's a tough job market out there...DO NOT WORK AT FILEVINE

Pros

Full remote, "people first" AI adoption, and cutting edge technology. One of the best technilogy orgs I have been a part of. Very innovation friendly- new ideas are welcomed! Generous time off and flexible working environment.

Cons

No bonuses, but the higher base pay makes up for it. There are growing pains where some people get overloaded, but management addresses those areas quickly.

Pros

The product is pretty good and I like the swag/merch

Cons

The BDR department has taken a downward spiral since I started at Filevine. The VP makes inappropriate comments and acts like he is better than everyone else. The director noticeably plays favorites, gives events to the same people even if we earn our spot and we often wonder what he does all day. The rest of the managers do the best they can working under those 2. The only manager who helped their team get to quota was recently kicked out, leaving a gap in the department and leaving the other managers to pick up the slack. Everyone is burned out and management doesnt seem to care, they just keep micromanaging and shoving higher and higher numbers down our throats we are never going to hit. We get punished if we ask for time off and don't bother calling in sick or you will have to show proof. If we dont do it their way then you will never get promoted and Im proof of that. There is ZERO flexibility even if you have appointments or outside things happening. It feels like a prison at times. Do yourself a favor and look for another way to get into Sales. I was told how great it was to work at Filevine and I have not seen that yet. No wonder everyone quits.
