Pros

Unfortunately, currently there are no good reasons to work at Sisense. The place has changed so much in the past year+ or so that it is no longer suitable for work.

Cons

The pay is under market, across the board at Sisense (company policy now) Culture has become super toxic (managers and peers will lie to your face) Multiple waves of layoffs, catching people by surprise. As well as dismissals that seem random - people fired at a moment's notice ("this is your last day"), after years with the company. Most importantly, the product has no future. A large amount of technical issues, that already caused major churn (clients choosing not to renew and go with competitors). No innovation or significant new features. Ineffective product department that is just trying to keep up with the chaotic and frequent org changes. Very poor leadership that keeps making mistake after mistake.

Pros

The company culture at Sisense is truly collaborative, supportive, and positive. Leadership has prioritized finding great people, and it shows. There is a strong sense of camaraderie across all teams. Everyone hired here is carefully selected and highly skilled. Working alongside such talented professionals is incredibly motivating and constantly pushes me to develop my own skills. The work is meaningful, and the projects are challenging. I feel my contributions are valued and directly contribute to our success. We operate in a highly competitive market, which means we are constantly challenged to innovate and execute at a high level.

Pros

My colleagues were genuinely nice people. They were happy to offer help whenever I needed assistance. I appreciated that,

Cons

The product is broken, the clients are leaving, and the employees are ridiculously stressed and frustrated. No one wants to see this reality, but I am highlighting it here to help people see through their lies. The leadership needs to act ASAP if they want to save the company and the future of employees. Otherwise, this ship will sink soon. All the good employees have left or are planning to leave quickly. I was one of them as I saw things would never change. As an employee, one feels ridiculously powerless. You don't have any authority, any control over the chaos and the worst work-life balance. Each day you hope things will change, and each day you get terribly disappointed. It's a sad place to be.
