Pros

** You are part of a company growing where every customer is new, every territory is new, and you are disrupting an age-old dashboarding marketplace - this is a RARE opportunity that not everyone will get the chance to be part of** - 'All in' mindset across all functions - everyone is striving towards that same goal and there is a huge team participation - Great mix of young, hungry yet conscientious employees and older more experienced employees - great balance and always learning - Market opportunity is huge....traction, growth and awareness growing significantly especially in EMEA If you want to build a company, grow quickly, have influence, be challenged, be creative, able to fail as long as you learn and share learnings, NOT work a 9-5 job for a company with huge brand awareness, then this is the place to be.

Cons

- Overstretched in some teams (positive is that this is testament to super fast growth we are seeing since pivot to SaaS and partnerships with major cloud data warehouse vendors) - Work to do on Diversity & Inclusion BUT big internal focus on this with CEO sponsorship in all areas (gender, disability, ethnic origin, etc.)

Pros

Competitive salaries, supportive leadership, lunch stipend for those in office, decent benefits, embracing AI, truly trust in their employees, volunteer days, unlimited PTO, work life flexibility, positive and exciting culture. Honestly-- I like coming to work and I really enjoy the people I get to work with. Not a lot of my peers in my same function, but at different companies, can say that.

Cons

Can feel isolating as many of us are remote. Often only the sales team is allowed to incur travel.

Pros

- good team members and peers in mid-senior management - flexible time off (sort of) - amazing product - great tools for building with AI

Cons

- burnout culture: "intensity" is a core value that plays out as burning people out, We've lost some good people over this. - when execs ask for feedback, and people are honest, they gaslight the folks giving feedback to minimize and dismiss the issues raised. - the week between Christmas and New Year's used to be company wide time off. Now it has to be approved by management. There were clearly some executives who wanted this to happen because they couldn't stand giving the whole team time off at once. See burnout comment above. - impulsive and reactive CEO. Fire drills every week that derail current projects. Downstream, we get harpooned by our direct C-level for not meeting deadlines. Other items have to be deprioritized in order to accommodate his urgent requests; there's no way around this.
