Sales team is disposable

Pros

Everyone wants to hear about the company and the technology, interest is incredible and the technology can actually deliver.

Cons

Huge turnover, no consideration for remote employees and no trust either. Your report is more important than your actions. People can be rude to each other. Also, there's very few differentiators in the commercial version. The conversion rate is extremely low, so targets are tough to achieve.

Pros

Great co-workers, wonderful learning opportunities, flexible hours, genuine concern from management about how they stack up. The people who work here are invariably smart, and everybody is friendly. They also are aggressive about training & promoting internally, which is great!

Cons

The "unlimited" vacation kind of depends on your manager. I would like it better if they had something additional, like "we mandate a minimum of 2 weeks of vacation per year," so that it's clear that you're expected to use your vacation time. Also, please implement 401(k) matching!

A lot of promise but painful experience

Pros

Fantastic team to work with, everyone clearly highly skilled. Promise of flexible work arrangements and work/life balance. Huge opportunity to work on a breakthrough product in rapidly changing industry. Very collegial coworkers and collaborative work environment.

Cons

I found the work/life balance to be mostly a sham. My immediate manager was absent 2-3 days per week, but expected to be involved in even routine decisions and would not respond to email. I was penalized on my reviews for leaving "early" after 8-9 hours and I frequently worked 1-2 hours from home every evening. Almost all requests to work from home were denied.
