Cool company, but very political and nearly no career growth potential

Account executive

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Cool office and "exciting trajectory," which probably isn't realistic to say anymore.

Cons

Management doesn't actually care about your overall career growth. They will stick you in the same position you were hired for and expect you to stay there (even while consistently blowing quotas out of the water). Compensation is low compares to the rest of the market, it's very political, and the culture is NOT the place it used to be years ago when it was actually exciting.

Hi there. Thank you so much for your honest feedback. I am sorry to hear that you feel as though your career growth has not been prioritized. One of our values is to be empowered; we believe in letting our employees take the lead in driving their own growth and development. With that said, we do recognize what a big role our managers play in performance, which is why we have spent the last year focused on manager training and support. I encourage you to reach out to your PX business partner or department leader to have a transparent conversation about your development. You can also feel free to reach out to me directly, I would love to hear more about your experience and how we can continue to support your growth at Salsify. Thanks, Colleen Fuller, CPO

Paying to be called a top company doesn't mean its true

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

I have fond memories of my colleagues who were team players, intelligent, and driven. The "perks" were nice--Friday lunches (though how many ways can you eat falafel in one month), snacks, free booze and cold brew, the occasional useful swag item, and learning about the fundamentals of ecommerce which will serve you well in the future. Good compensation. The CEO, Jason Purcell, is a great leader, and I enjoyed every interaction I had with him but he's dragged down by those who he is surrounded by.

Cons

Where does one begin? Management makes you feel inadequate because they are unable to manage and lead. Perhaps thats because managers on the go-to market team failed up--being good at your job as an individual contributor doesn't mean you are a good manager or meant to lead a team. There was little to no attempt to provide constructive feedback in a timely manner that would allow for employees to improve. Better to just "let them go" and claim you are still growing and strong--look at all the lists we are featured on (...that employees are repeatedly ask to participate in)! When all you care about IPO, getting called a top company, and entering new industries or verticals when the product and messaging hasn't been fleshed out yet, you are going to fail. There is one singular member of the marketing leadership who is a great person, the rest place their failures on lower level employees to keep their jobs intact. There's also the fact that one of the founders has a "how to work with me" document sent to those who will have to suffer underneath his narcissism. There are very few people who should have that type of document...and I assure you it is not a co-founder of a company who will not be IPO-ing. Beyonce, yes.

Hi there- Thank you for your feedback. Clearly, there are significant aspects of your experience at Salsify that did not align with what we’re trying to build, which really disappoints me. As the head of people experience, our team works hard to make sure that employees feel valued and supported by both their managers and by the company as a whole. A very important part of our culture is ensuring that each employee understands and is excited about how they contribute to our overall growth. I would love the chance to learn more from you about other things we can be doing to guarantee that. If you’re open to it, please reach out to me directly. And again, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. Thank you, Colleen Fuller

BDR

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits, perks, awesome office, great snacks, monthly bonus opportunities.

Cons

Strict "call-block" hours of cold calling over 3+ hours a day, with management listening in on the system and critiquing, feels like a call center. Absolutely no room for growth, they will say there are lots of growth opportunities but ask how many BDRs have been promoted to a closing role in the past year....1. Senior BDR's have been in the seat for +/- 2 years and although they have hit their numbers, they are not even given the opportunity to apply for a closing role...all external hires. It is quite odd, but the senior BDRs that stay stagnant just seem ok and like the familiarity of it. If you are OK with being a BDR for many years, this is totally the job for you, because there are some good BDR perks! Otherwise, you will be very frustrated and leave (like myself) adding to the large amount of BDR turnover.
