During my interview process I felt comfortable. It felt more like a casual conversation than an interview. I was very blessed to have this opportunity.

Cons

I will let you know if I ever think of something but I wouldn't hold my breathe. It's a wonderful environment!

Pros

Tons of opportunities to learn, if you give yourself a chance to do so. The company is a bit disorganized in some ways, but for the most part, things are great. Comp plan is incredibly incentivizing, and it will rid the org of people who are ok with just skating by. Opportunity to advance and grow yourself keeps me coming back each day.

Cons

Operational issues tend to be all over the place. New forecasting tool has taken a month to get up and running, comp plan has greatly rewarded new business people but painfully penalized growth people. Feels like fire drills all over the place. Glassdoor seems to take pride in feeling like a chaotic start up, but being 11 years old now, it is time to get things in order.

Glassdoor Response

I appreciate you writing this review and giving us feedback on the forecasting tool as well. New tool roll outs can be challenging to push out with the pace in which our teams are growing here in the US and in EMEA, but we are focused in improving how we push new tools out to our teams going forward. Thank you for pointing out the possibilities for growth and career development. The executive team has partnered with HR and we've heard the feedback from our staff members, and we take it seriously. We always want to ensure our staff feel supported in the advancement of their careers here. Thank you for the hard work that you put in always. -Kate Ahlering, SVP Sales
