Pros

There’s a lot of emphasis on employee wellbeing which i appreciate. Matched 401k and we get stock options. The culture is great but the salary does not match that it keep up with inflation

Cons

SDRs at Pax8 would be Account Representatives at other companies that pay well over six figures for this type of work. We manage accounts, negotiate deals, and help partners make transactions. They say they make up for the salary/commission with their great culture, and it does count for something, but not for the additional 25k i could get somewhere else

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.
