Pros

Company continues to innovate and differentiate

Cons

Enterprise Sales Management, from the top down, only care about themselves and the friends they bring on board. There is no equal opportunity to succeed here. Being berated is a common, management tactic. They push you to do unnatural tasks and then cover themselves by pointing the blame at you when it blows up

Pros

The product and the related services are excellent in quality. Customers quickly understand what advantages there are over the competition. The structure of the teams - Sales, Solution Architect and Customer Success Manager - is not new, but very well implemented. Despite the cultural differences, the cooperation between the teams and among each other is very good. The vision of the founder Aaron Skonnard is still very inspiring and extraordinary in theory.

Cons

The original spirit of the founders, the total commitment of the entire team and the uniqueness of the company - formerly a true Unicorn - has been lost more and more since the IPO. Unfortunately, very quickly. The founder's visions are the one side that no longer has anything in common with the other side of the new sales managers and the stakeholders. Processes, instructions, driving the team. Threats etc. no longer differ from the others in the industry. There is no longer a unique selling point in terms of culture and the company philosophy it lives by. Due to the origins of the new management, the focus is more on the bad examples. It seems that Aaron Skonnard is no longer connected to the base and does not notice the mood in the whole team.

Hey there. Thanks for the thoughtful review and it’s great to hear that you’re experiencing cohesion between your teams! I’m interested to hear your points on the culture and the impact of the IPO. If you are seeing something that you feel needs fixing, I truly encourage you to talk with your leadership team and potentially Aaron. I would bet that we’re all after the same thing and having conversations and understanding the perspective on both sides could help here. And of course, I’m always here to give guidance where it’s helpful. - Anita
