Pros

Remote work, decent salaries and benefits, extra sales incentives, company paid trips

Cons

Revolving door of talent, don't expect to last long in this company. They treat all salespeople like expendable assets and wouldn't think twice before firing someone. The extra sales incentives are just used as a pathetic excuse and cover up for the incompetence in leadership and their ever growing greed for profit to IPO. Management does not listen to rank and file employees. Feedback is encouraged internally but always ignored or shot down

Pros

- You can work from anywhere and work async - Unlimited vacation days - Good work from home set-up

Cons

- Leadership lacks clear goals and vision, so you might start working on a project that might be canceled at anytime - Although company values are transparency and kindness, that was not what I experienced - People that were laid off were treated really unfairly and left without a proper explanation

Pros

Remote WITHIN your country Healthcare benefit is good Lovely people are hired, but shame they then get fired for underperforming within a team with no support

Cons

Working here can feel less like joining a team and more like entering a revolving door. Hiring appears aggressive and volume driven, but terminations can be just as fast and unexpectedly handled, often with little transparency or meaningful feedback. The environment can feel transactional, very much as though employees are expendable rather than developed. There is minimal real support infrastructure. You’re expected to perform at a high level while navigating ambiguity, limited onboarding, and inconsistent leadership guidance. Instead of investing in growth, management attention often seems disproportionately focused on who is underperforming rather than celebrating or retaining top contributors. Recognition feels rare; scrutiny feels constant. Career progression pathways are unclear at best. Promotions and structured development conversations are limited, leaving many employees feeling stagnant. Compensation can lag behind market expectations, particularly given the performance pressure and revenue expectations placed on staff. The global hiring strategy may prioritize lower-cost regions, which can create an uneven sense of stability and job security across teams. It can feel less like building a strong culture and more like optimizing for cost efficiency. Perhaps most concerning is the communication style. Feedback is sometimes delivered publicly rather than privately, which can feel demoralizing and disrespectful. Psychological safety, the foundation of strong remote teams is completely absent with many people across different teams on long term mental health leave. For highly independent individuals who are comfortable with risk and minimal support, this environment may work. For those seeking mentorship, stability, fair compensation, and long-term growth, it may prove frustrating.

Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your experience as a Business Development Representative. We are glad you valued our remote-first culture, competitive healthcare benefits, and the high caliber of colleagues we hire globally. Remote operates with a high-performance culture, which means we set ambitious goals, expect strong ownership, and rely heavily on clear documentation and async communication so teams across many countries can collaborate effectively. These principles are outlined in our public handbook and are designed to create transparency and accountability across the company. You raised concerns around support, communication, recognition, and psychological safety. These are important topics for us. As we continue scaling globally, we are investing in stronger onboarding programs, clearer career frameworks, and additional manager training to ensure teams receive the support and feedback needed to succeed in a high-performance environment. We are also continually refining how feedback and recognition are delivered across teams to reinforce a culture of respect, clarity, and growth. Building a global, remote company requires constant iteration, and feedback like yours helps inform where we focus our efforts. We appreciate you sharing your perspective and wish you the best in your next chapter.
