Sales enablement lead

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Fast paced environment, access to cutting edge tools and training, solid pay and benefits.

Cons

The highest performing and most talented team members have quit or unfairly been pushed out. The leaders that are left are protected due to relationships and longevity not true performance or impact. Job security is based on who likes you not how you actually drive business outcomes
