Pros

Solid product, but saturated market. I left after quotas were raised & territories cut. No longer hunting for new logos, it's all about accounting upping subscriptions & having AE's call clients to inform the of the increase.

Cons

Some of the worst senior leadership I've ever witnessed. Legacy sales managers are those lucky enough to fall into this job after getting fired from their previous companies. It's like the island of misfit toys.... I played the game and made some money, but Zero talent and no one worth asking to be a mentor.

Pros

Culture, Food, and People are great.

Cons

PS department was/is actively looking to use artificial intelligence for XBRL tagging (which is the primary role of a PSM). There’s also not much room for upper mobility and too niche of a skill set to be marketable elsewhere if you stay too long.

Pros

The people I work with are generally very nice and easy to get along with. This does not include management however. You let them trick you into thinking you have a great job, when in actuality its a slave ship.

Cons

Talk about being manipulated and taken advantage of. CSMs are the most valuable employees at Workiva since they work directly with customers, yet they are in the lowest paid position at Workiva. Exec's & management could care less if you have to work 70 hours a week for a year. As long as the customers happy, they are happy. The second you give a little slack and try to actually have a life outside of work, that's the second you'll get reamed out by your boss. I was once brainwashed into believing that Workiva appreciated their employees...that could not be farther from the truth. If you enjoy having any sort of a life outside of your career, then DO NOT WORK HERE! Pure Manipulation at its finest.
