Going down the drain

Pros

Provides a paycheck with benefits

Cons

This place gets worse daily. New leadership has ruined the company, their constant threats of firing for not following their daily changes are no longer threats. "Do as we say or leave, if you don't like it, leave" is said every single week via email or on mandatory internal calls. People are treated terribly, and soon there is going to be nobody left. Customer and partner relationships have become damaged as they have a new account manager every month and product knowledge leaves with every layoff and firing. If you like being berated and have the constant fear of your employment status being used against you daily, then this is the job for you. It's very sad to see what has happened to a company that was once a good place to work.

Pros

New CEO, Enablement, Channel, and Marketing leadership has everyone extremely excited for necessary change.

Cons

New CRO might be the worst communicator, leader, and advocate any of us have ever experienced.

Pros

Great people to work with. Bright, talented, genuine good people. Good pay. Good benefits. Great managers and Dev managers. Hours and vacation are great. Offices and locations are great. Positions are great building awesome products. BTW, my rating would be a 5 star, with proper leaders.

Cons

Senior leadership! This leadership team cares more about social justice issues than it does about it's employees and growing the business Ultra micro managing senior leaders in my BU. CEO gets asks hard relevant questions, and answers with “Let me tell you what they meant to ask” and then proceeds to say whatever he wants except addressing the question. No confidence in Patrick. Leadership team talks about becoming a growth company, promises will do the right things for the business, so they layed off employees, didn’t revise any schedules, and then proceeded to hire 3 CxO level people that they worked with elsewhere. Growth to this leadership team means closing offices, restricting travel and saying “Look at the OPEX savings, aren’t we awesome!”
