Pros

- Laid back company culture. Tshirt and jeans is typical dress, frequent company happy hours and events, very young vibe (most people between 22 - 32) - Small startup on its way to the top. The product is great and fits a need in the market, and the leadership is learning how to grow a company sustainably. - Significant room to grow. This company is going to get very big very fast, and you will find yourself in an influential role very quickly. - Everyone is incredibly fun and friendly.

Cons

- Work life balance can be difficult to achieve. The pace of work can be exhausting. - Growing pains of changing from a very small startup to a midsize company are beginning to happen - how do we promote internally, how do we handle HR, what are the processes we need to handle things we didn't have to worry about before, etc. - Compensation is competitive, but not outstanding. This may improve as they grow, however.

Thanks for all the kind words and your honesty! Agree - this is a company where we hire people who want a challenge and are up for it. We don't hide that we push people hard (while not requiring long hours) and expect them to in turn expect the best out of their beers. There will of course be internal processes that get formed as this company matures - but only if you, dear coworker, tell us what we need to improve on. And re: pay - we have a clear and transparent process by which we determine your salary and make sure you are being paid above market for your role (and that's not including equity). Hit me up if you want to learn more!

Pros

-legitimately excellent human beings from the top down. the extent to which the CEO cares about the people he works with is nothing short of inspiring to be around. -people throw the word "culture" around a little too loosely... but Contactually gets it right. it's not about the snacks, dogs, happy hours, founders day, etc (although all of these things are wonderful), it's about the way people treat one another. it's a genuine team effort to "be excellent to one another." -leadership views you as an investment they're excited to help grow rather than a disposable drone. they make sure you have the best technology available to you, tirelessly train you, and most impressively genuinely listen to you.

Cons

-promotion paths are clearly laid out, but amended often... can leave you feeling like your target is moving. -goals/quotas changed drastically month to month, were at times entirely too easy to hit and at times nearly impossible

Hi there! Incredibly thankful that you've taken the time to craft such a thoughtful response. We have invested a lot into making sure our best asset - our team - is as strong as possible. We'll never rest on our laurels though, and expect every employee to be just as much a contributor as a recipient of our culture. Your feedback regarding promotion paths is fair, as is your point about goals. We always try and reflect what's best for the team and the current state of the company, and not let either fall stagnant. That means, as we learn and grow, mistakes may happen. So while we've never had a time where the majority of our sales team didn't hit goal, I hope you find we are very receptive to feedback, and have made course corrections quite often.

Pros

its a constantly evolving company that requires it employees to work fast and play hard. We might not have all the answers to everything - but we learn as we go until we reach our goals.

Cons

they don't pay for my gym membership.
