Pros

Break into tech sales industry

Cons

Majority of sales reps feel like they got fooled by joining Verkada and make no where close to their OTE. They do a great job creating the illusion that it’s the best place to work with all the flashy perks/benefits. The current reality is about 20% of total reps are hitting their fully ramped quotas. They will quickly put you on Performance Improvement Plans, which could be within first 6 months. The managers are forced to micromanage the activity metrics, which all the targets are very unreasonable.

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.
