Dreadful and tiring

Pros

Colleagues are great and we always try to lift eachother up

Cons

Morale is dropping and upper management keeps letting people go so now people are leaving on their own as well. I don't see a future here anymore and I don't know where the company is going. It seems like it's becoming more 'sales ' and no one cares about the professional service group anymore. Everyone just keeps working hard for nothing so its dreadful and tiring to go to work now. Some people on the PM team doesnt even know what they are doing anymore, morale is at an all time low.

Potential could be good

Pros

Very flexible, $10 per test and the scenarios instructions are very clear and easy to understand.

Cons

* It’s hard to get a website to review, seems like the screening questions can go on and on to boot you out of being able to do it. * Sometimes it seems like you get the same ones because the screening questions are exactly the same.

Pros

Easy-to-describe product. Lots of case studies and other sales collateral. Good healthcare and vision, decent dental, fair and understanding middle-management, lunches twice a week, weekly massages, matching 401k. Management is pretty flexible on work/life balance and doesn't micro-manage, which is nice.

Cons

They made the most common mistake in Silicon Valley: thinking that more sales people = more sales. See how that's working for Zenefits and a thousand other under-performing companies. Instead of creating a recurring lead generation machine, they've assigned their entire SDR team to qualify inbound leads. Instead of hiring more SDRs to do outbound lead generation by prospecting into new companies, management has doubled the size of the sales team and created two new teams out of thin air; none of which has nearly enough to do or enough leads to hit their quotas. They now expect their highest-paid employees to do the lowest-value work, which has achieved predictable results. Many reps had less than 20 demos in the entire first quarter! This has accomplished two things: lowered earnings per rep by more than 50% (nearly across the board) and caused employee morale to plummet. SDRs are desperate to hit numbers so they pass mediocre leads. AE's are desperate to hit numbers so they convert mediocre leads. If you're being hired for a sales role at UserTesting, do yourself a favor and ask to speak to a rep that was with the company prior to August 2015 to get a comparison of how things were and how they are now.
