Pros

Great people: I get to work with truly amazing people with great personalities. I also really admire our co-founders and how they run the business. Great product: Gong’s products are the leaders in the field with superb brand recognition. Lots of interesting and cutting edge developments going on. Great potential: With the launch of the new product, I think Gong really has a chance to become a highly successful and stable company

Cons

Culture fit: There is definitely a Gong culture that is not for everyone. Just look at our website and social media pages to get the vibe. Work-Life Balance: or really the lack thereof. Many reasons for inefficiencies but because I am supporting the sales team I have to oblige. WLB really depends on your manager and head of group but for me personally environment is not there to set my boundaries. This is not sustainable and one of the main reasons I am seeking a role outside Gong. Favoritism: From getting offered quality work assignments to ultimate financial rewards (promotions, raises, bonuses and prizes) you know the favorites who get the glory. Some do deserve it I guess because I see them working ALL THE TIME. But others who also work just as hard (sadly there are so many because people are short staffed) never really get the recognition. At a crossroad: Now is a crucial time for Gong to either make or break it. Successful launch of the new product will definitely let Gong fly to infinity and beyond. If Gong does not succeed, there are plenty of competitors out there who will overtake with their cheaper options.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We appreciate your positive feedback regarding the great people, our co-founders, leading products, and confidence in our future potential. It was difficult to read your concerns about culture fit and work-life balance. We’re embracing a competitive market, striving to excel, and while achieving this requires dedicated effort, creating an environment where employees are treated equally and can set boundaries is still extremely important to us at Gong. I'm sorry that hasn't been your experience. I value all feedback(and privacy), so please reach out to me directly if you have additional feedback. Laura Wilson, [Interim] CPO
