Pros

Great people: I get to work with truly amazing people with great personalities. I also really admire our co-founders and how they run the business. Great product: Gong’s products are the leaders in the field with superb brand recognition. Lots of interesting and cutting edge developments going on. Great potential: With the launch of the new product, I think Gong really has a chance to become a highly successful and stable company

Cons

Culture fit: There is definitely a Gong culture that is not for everyone. Just look at our website and social media pages to get the vibe. Work-Life Balance: or really the lack thereof. Many reasons for inefficiencies but because I am supporting the sales team I have to oblige. WLB really depends on your manager and head of group but for me personally environment is not there to set my boundaries. This is not sustainable and one of the main reasons I am seeking a role outside Gong. Favoritism: From getting offered quality work assignments to ultimate financial rewards (promotions, raises, bonuses and prizes) you know the favorites who get the glory. Some do deserve it I guess because I see them working ALL THE TIME. But others who also work just as hard (sadly there are so many because people are short staffed) never really get the recognition. At a crossroad: Now is a crucial time for Gong to either make or break it. Successful launch of the new product will definitely let Gong fly to infinity and beyond. If Gong does not succeed, there are plenty of competitors out there who will overtake with their cheaper options.

Pros

Great product, amazing culture! I've had several managers and all of them were dynamite. It also feels like the leadership team actually has a pulse on what's going on in the marketplace.

Cons

Selling into a mainly tech sales ICP has been really tough. Very high standard of selling performance - mostly all self-sourced and we're the premium in the marketplace

Pros

Company has good benefits, overall culture of the company is decent and people are trying to do the right thing.

Cons

Pay scales are not comparable to tech industry in high cost areas, it can be difficult to collaborate with some teams due to timezones. Some of the senior leadership staff are new to being in a senior leadership role; that can be a pro and a con at the same time.
