Pros

The culture. Because Toast is growing fast (65 people in our latest orientation class) there's A LOT of new employees here. And everyone still smiles at you in the halls and is more than happy to help you any way they can. The leadership team is very approachable and genuinely cares. Because of the huge growth in the company, there is seemingly uncapped opportunity to grow professionally. I've seen promotions and internal transfers happen all the time. People are FUN and have a sense of humor. They're also really passionate about the product and how we help our customers.

Cons

Make no mistake - Toast is not a place you can "nest". Everyone has high expectations of each other. The people that i've seen not be successful at Toast are: a) not willing to go above and beyond (treat this like "just a job") or b) not great team players. If i had to guess, a lot of the recent negative reviews are from individuals who were not willing to go all in and hop on this rocket ship. You're not just "working" here - you're actively solving problems that build this company.

Rapidly changing product landscape can occasionally make cross-functional alignment a bit complex.

Pros

-Strong pay (if you hit your numbers) -Ambitious goals that challenge you -Competitive landscape that will force you to get better beyond exclusively selling -Founders still very involved and very visible to the company and employees -Team cultures are always strong -For sales, you always get in touch with prospects, which is an underrated pro -When leadership promotes internal mobility and career development they mean it and support it

Cons

-Numerous Sales teams that share the same markets/TAMs. Customers and prospects get exhausted of outreach - Since going public, the goal posts keep moving forward even if 60% of the org hit goal. -A number of core leaders have left, new ones still learning the ropes which was hindering the orgs and teams
