What is the hiring process like at Beamery?

- As an organization, our product truly makes a difference in improving the hiring process for companies across the globe and creates meaningful opportunities for talented individuals regardless of their background. As a sales rep, it is great to sell a product you truly believe in. - Remote first sales team with a great culture and opportunities to get together as a team. Great salary and benefits. US benefits and insurance are top of the line. Unlimited PTO, First Fridays unplugged each month to rest up and recharge. - Improving sales organization and culture—Renewed focus and leadership globally in the sales organization following SKO last month. Clear vision on where to focus our time and alignment on working together to exceed sales targets within ICP accounts. Sales leaders are supportive and in the trenches with AEs, extremely clear on expectations, and provide valuable feedback/coaching. - Opportunity to make an Impact - As a growing startup with a smaller sales team, there are a ton of accounts to go after to meet and exceed quota. If you like the challenge of hunting deals and finding whitespace opportunities, Beamery is a good fit for you. As a sales rep, you have a great opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the company as a whole versus what you can do at a larger org. - Compensation Plan - Every AE is going to be looking for this bullet. The compensation plan meets & exceeds industry standards and rewards overperformance for surpassing quota. - Teamwork and collaboration—Beamery employees some of the most talented colleagues I have had the pleasure of working with across all departments. Folks are quick to respond to Slack or hop on a Zoom call to collaborate to solve a problem or help sign a new client.

- Startup Challenges - Fast-moving tech company that is not immune to growing pains. Things change rapidly in the HR industry, so you'll need to be able to roll with the punches and adapt accordingly. - Data Silos amongst teams - Teamwork is getting better on an individual level, but sometimes it can seem like decisions across departments are not looked at holistically. Communication of these changes/decisions could be improved as this information is often hard to find and not communicated thoroughly.

The problem we are solving for enterprise businesses and HR leaders is super interesting, complex and challenging. Beamery is full of smart and genuinely lovely people - even in Sales! If you work hard, yet are thoughtful and collaborative in your approach, you will be welcomed, respected and thrive as part of the Beamteam. Everyone works hard and the pressure can feel immense at times. But the benefits are great. And if you're a sprint worker then you'll relish the "First Friday of the Month Unplugged" to give you a guaranteed 3 day weekend to recharge your boots ready for another sprint. I've had a fantastic personal experience in starting a family whilst at Beamery. Very supportive managers. I did not feel at any point that I lost out on career opportunities and was still offered a promotion in the run up to maternity leave. The leave and pay are also generous. And for my return to work, my co-workers have been consciously respectful and inclusive.

This is a fast-moving tech scale up selling a complex offering into a rapidly evolving HR industry. Buckle in. For some, the rollercoaster might be too much of a ride. This is a tech scale up: some level of chaos is expected. You have to be able to roll with the punches, manage with a lack of process and handle uncertainty.

- The people you work with on a day-to-day basis on the ground are amazing and have kept Beamery as a nice environment to work in - The benefits are great, unlimited holiday, first Friday of the month off, private healthcare - Hybrid working isn’t micromanaged yet, rumours of a return to office plan - Management are not horrible people, most are just inept

- The culture has taken a hit since the first round of redundancies and after the most recent layoffs I imagine it will only get worse - Terrible communication from management about anything worth knowing - Far too many talkers and not enough doers at the mid-management level, if you can spin the yarn then you will thrive at Beamery - C-Suite are in over their heads, budgets are out of control, and spending after Series C was mind-boggling (acquisition of Flux, buying their own office space due to founder egos). Nobody knows how they keep losing money, and making layoffs yet the C-Suite are completetly unaffected in their roles, maybe look within. - Obsessed with hiring from logos or McKinsey, at the time of the first layoffs in Jan 2023 a new team was spawned from Board member recommendations that have made no impact - The product is ever-changing with no clear roadmap, they need to stick to one niche and they will thrive

- Pay - First Friday of the month off

- 3 founders have a combined < 6 years of actual working experience - Forbes 30 under 30 - Ignorant and arrogant C-suite <= deadly combination - Complete inability to learn from mistakes across the board - Exceedingly low quality employees, i.e. lazy and dumb - Sales making promises to prospects without talking to engineering - Heavy management echelon that do absolutely nothing useful or appropriate for their expertise - Rife with nepotism and favoritism. New CTO keeps bringing in subpar people of a certain national origin from his previous company over, slotting them directly into team lead / principal engineer positions when they won't even pass as a senior engineer anywhere else - Knee jerk decision making "processes". Every time a new process is introduced, before the results of the first try comes in, management is ready to move on to the next - Management lies all the time. The company values are written but everybody does the exact opposite all the time. There's no transparency or accountability whatsoever - No feedback culture, which leads to all of the above - The worst record keeping and institutional knowledge management - The worst product I've ever worked on with the worst ever customer feedback I've ever seen

Beamery has a relevant product that large enterprises need to hire and retain top talent. People here are kind, smart and hard working Executives are transparent. New CRO has revamped the sales org and aligned it for success. The new sales team is talented, and hardworking

Based in London so early morning calls for US team members.
