Pros

Great employees and friends from this company and good PTO.

Cons

Young management, they honestly don’t know how to handle tough situations, they are not very educated on sales and provide no help or assistance or helpful career advice. You have to know people in order to get promoted here (especially into management). Pax8 severely underpays for the industry. If your looking to make money and your not a TOP account manager, don’t expect to make much money here. Quotas constantly change and they do not set you up for success to hit quota. Pax8 will claim they care about their employees but they clearly do not. They will dangle the fact that in the long run Pax8 will be worth a lot and that it’s worth it to stay and wait out all the changes . But changes have been happening for the past 2 + years and they keep saying it will level out and it has not. They also will promise you promotions in the future and then go back and change the promotion or tell you there are “no spots available” so you don’t get promoted as fast as they say. I would stay away.

I am sorry that you are not experiencing the support and culture that we strive to create at Pax8. Our employees' well-being is literally our #1 goal, and we are constantly looking at where we are succeeding and what needs improvement. We invest heavily in the professional development of our managers, even before they step into a leadership role, to prepare them to handle what comes their way. If at any time an employee feels that they are not getting the support that they need, we highly encourage them to go to their Directors, VP, C-Suite member, or People Ops Business Partner for guidance. It is true that we have changed quotas, while at the same time providing better sales tools and aligning sales territories to increase success. Although it can be disruptive, we make these decisions with much thought with the end goal of creating greater success for our sales teams and providing an elevated experience for the partners that they serve. Thank you for your feedback and feel free to contact me directly if you would like to provide more details on your concerns.

Pros

Strong individual contributors who are partner-centric. New office is nice for hybrid work.

Cons

What was once a strong culture has eroded significantly due to poor leadership, misaligned talent in key roles, and a chronic lack of strategic direction and communication. Tenure or relationships are rewarded over competence, and those at the top protect each other — even when decisions have negatively impacted the business and/or partners. People are treated as revenue-generating assets, not human beings. Leadership is so deeply disconnected from the real problems that have persisted for years.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that our people, partner focus, and hybrid workspace stood out positively for you—these remain core to who we are. We also recognise that maintaining a strong culture as we grow takes ongoing focus. We continue to invest in strengthening leadership capability, improving how we communicate and align on strategy, and creating more consistent ways for feedback to be heard and acted on across the business. We know there’s always more to do in these areas, and insights like this play an important role in helping us improve and we hope you took time to share this feedback internally via leadership or our anonymous channels whilst you worked with us. We appreciate you sharing your experience and wish you all the best for the future.
