No clear management. Management keep changing and there's little to no support for and from some teams. Internal process is awful impacting customers. Expect Nepotism.

Pros

The product has market recognition, and some colleagues on the ground level are talented and well-intentioned. Fully remote setup allows flexibility in daily scheduling.

Cons

Zero Career Growth: Despite hitting or exceeding quota consistently year-over-year, there were no clear pathways for promotion or advancement. “No cap on commission” was repeatedly promised but quietly undermined—quotas were raised arbitrarily and accelerator percentages were slashed without notice. Not a Meritocracy: Performance doesn’t matter. Promotions were political and based on favoritism, not results. Sales reps who hit targets were pushed harder without meaningful reward. Deep Ethical Concerns: Senior leadership openly instructed reps to input fake pipeline numbers for their top accounts—essentially cooking the books to look better to private equity investors. This wasn't a misunderstanding; it was a deliberate, top-down directive. Toxic Culture & Racism: I experienced racist remarks from colleagues that were brushed off by management when reported. There is little to no accountability for behavior that violates basic standards of respect. Private Equity Destruction: Since the PE acquisition, the soul of the company has been gutted. Decisions are made solely for investor optics—not for the long-term health of the business or wellbeing of the employees. Morale tanked and turnover skyrocketed.

Pros

It used to be a great workplace. There was a true culture of kindness, and people assumed positive intent of each other. The core UserTesting product is amazing.

Cons

- Constant layoffs lead to a toxic/anxious culture. Layoffs are juxtaposed with really wasteful expenses all around, which is frustrating. - There can be inept local management for non-US-based teams, and no one will look into it for a long time. - The exec team only cares about themselves and is taking only a quarter-based approach
