Pros

- Nice Office - Free Lunch - Good Product

Cons

- If you want to spend your entire day cold calling, this is a great place to go (this is not an exaggeration). Marketing DOES NOT help you fill 20% of your pipeline as they say they do. - Bunch of foul mouthed frat boys from Danville (if you're not in the click, you're out) - Zero manager help to either develop you as a rep or set you up for success in the role - No manager will ever take responsibility for their short comings and will blame you if things fall through. - If you're in the wrong territory and don't have a pre-existing network of resellers and an underdeveloped territory, forget the concept of making money or being successful. There is zero help in this area so not only are you responsible for finding new business but also responsible for finding people to sell for you. - HR violations are all over the place, women are constantly put in awkward positions based on some of the comments I've heard. - If you want to work for managers that haven't actually hit their own number but got promoted because of their social connections, then take a closer look. - Hopefully you don't live in SF because that commute gets real old. - Also the pay is not great, other start ups pay more. Bottom line: Not worth it.. there are much better places to work where you can feel like a human being, make more money and not feel like you're working in a sweatshop.

Pros

Some of the people are kind, intelligent, and very thoughtful, which made the rest manageable when it unbearable Fancy perks: food, coffee bar

Cons

This is the worst company I have ever worked for. Inexperienced leadership and middle management creates an air of stress, anxiety, and frustration across all areas of the workplace. People often snap at each other, burn out, and successes are rarely recognized or celebrated. There is no sense of team unity. I even witnessed a monkey being brought into the office to be posed for photos during an end of quarter celebration. There is little flexibility for people not being in-office due to family/outside issues. There are too many meetings with no clear organization or purpose, and messages/emails are often sent late into the night, on holidays, and on weekends. I wish someone had warned me not to work here before I started, it was some of the worst days of my life.
