- Many, many orgs within QC have no clear growth path.
- Pay is insufficient for the work they give you, in my department and others (roles encompass what is 2-3 jobs elsewhere).
- For my friends in sales, the classic AE role is basically an SDR with added pressure. Add in archaic KPIs and call metrics (literally – a portion of how you are paid is based on how many meetings you have – LOL) and its clear why all of the good sellers jump ship (which in turn makes other orgs' life miserable).
- You will work hard here for years to be given the tiniest raise.
- Your friends will leave because it has become a revolving door.
- Veterans of the company will also leave - for lack of vision, because your new structure essentially demoted them, or because they don’t want to be around when the aroma of downfall is too strong to shake off. They will unfortunately leave a trail of mediocre middle managers behind in their place.
- Finally, you will leave, because you realize that as great as Quantcast once was, it is just one of many of its kind, and clients truly do not understand nor care about the difference. Have you seen the Lumascape? Trying to find Quantcast on that thing is like playing a very boring Where's Waldo.
