Pros

Some cool co-workers, nice building (which they will move from because they can't afford it anymore because the amateur leaders blew their series A)

Cons

Awful management. None of the reps like their managers, none of the reps hit their quota. False hopes, no structure, no one hits quota, people get fired every week. The CEO is 28 years old and doesn't know how to run a company, The COO is even worse - haven't heard anyone in the company say one nice thing about him. The co-founder stepped down for unknown reasons.... but its apparent she wasn't happy with the direction the company is going. Talkdesk really is the worst place to work in the valley. Do yourself a favor, during your interview ask how many sales reps have hit their quota consistently, how long they have been there, and how many have been fired in the past year.

Pros

- Having been through some high growth startups, I've never been a part of a rocketship like this one - Amazingly smart people to learn from - Everyone at the company has a hustle mentality - Culture gets better everyday

Cons

- The cons of being a hyper growth startup is that there are changes that happen frequently. The company is still learning what works and what doesn't -- but most moves have been good ones by management

Pros

Nothing positive about this company. Lies are often told from the management team and they only promote bad behavior.

Cons

I am a seasoned professional with 12+ years of experience. I have not never seen such a wreckless bunch of clowns called the management team. I must have joined the circus.
