Pros

Strong product with a well-known brand in the geospatial industry. Good exposure to SaaS sales, prospecting, and working with a variety of industries. Colleagues are supportive and there are opportunities to learn from experienced sales professionals. Flexible working arrangements and a generally positive team culture.

Cons

Career progression can feel unclear at times, particularly for BDRs looking to move into Account Executive roles. Expectations and processes can change frequently, making it difficult to plan long term. Compensation is below some comparable SaaS sales roles in Sydney, and there can be a heavy focus on activity metrics rather than overall development.

Pros

I had great autonomy to work with my customers and present my customer plans and renewal plans to upper leadership. Low to no interference most of the time.

Cons

I didn't get to travel as much as I wanted.

Pros

Excellent product, Lehi, UT staff, technical support

Cons

Redundant leadership, never know who’s in charge. Redundant processes, constant shifts in focus. Limited investment outside of insurance vertical. “Grow at all costs” strategy from years past coming back to bite org. Too many cooks in the kitchen. No legitimate mechanism for front-line sales to engage with senior leadership.
