Pros

* good tech * strong growth for a SaaS company (100 to 250M ARR in 2025) * likely exit (acquisition is rumored)

Cons

* layoffs and comp issues among sales team. layoffs happen more than you want and affect morale but if you're performing not an issue. comp issues are a pattern that has led to talent leakage and is more concerning. * questions of tech relevance with MCP, agents, and an architecture built on an index * annoying but worth noting: many roles and systems/processes are outsourced to India, which can lead to a subpar employee experience

Pros

Exciting product and space to be in. Glean can help set you up for long term success.

Cons

Company is very frugal. In a world where it seems everyone else is investing more money into people, product and company as a whole, Glean cuts corners wherever possible. Whether it is subar pay, offices, tools for employees to use; every time somebody needs anything it is an uphill battle to get it with upper management.
