It's about building something - hard working team, fun along the way - literally pushing for change - Management TruRating Employee Review

Pros

Everyone driving to the same vision - a change for business, a change for consumers, a change for those less fortunate via the charity work; everyone has a stake and everyone has a voice in moving things forward. Are their bumps along the way - definitely, but that's the journey when you're doing things differently. You learn every day.... because no one has ever done this before. It's massive and it's coming together in a big way in 2019.

Cons

It's hard. So many moving pieces, but if it wasn't hard it'd be boring. It's all how you look at it and what you want out of a job. You have to want the end game and there are lots of challenges, even full on blockers, but getting through them (and we do) is the fun part.

Pros

I’m a huge believer in our product and our vision (which is why the equity component is compelling). Our leadership works hard, and our founders truly embody the word “entrepreneur.” The team also genuinely wants to help each other out.

Cons

Specific to the job: very lengthy sales cycle since we’re selling a solution that touches what most enterprises see as a high-risk moment (payments). Just something to be aware of. About the broader company: a few too many recurring meetings. I can swallow it thanks to the many Pros of working here, but it’s a pain

Pros

Product offering is truly disruptive and solves a real need in the market for higher customer feedback response rates. That is off-set by an extremely long sales cycle and small addressable market given the lack of technical partner enablement on a retailer's POS. Founders genuinely work to create a positive, fun work environment but that doesn't filter down into the day to day work within the sales organization.

Cons

Honestly the worst sales job I've ever had. No one has hit quota in years (if ever) and the sales cycle is extremely long - well over 1 year. The hardest part is the micro-management of every sales activity. Calls are recorded, you have to log every call and meeting, there is no top of funnel support, and you have to send hundreds of emails per week as part of the arduous KPI process. CRM maintenance takes a long time - checking boxes, updating next steps in the sales process, etc. You honestly spend more time doing mindless administrative work than actually selling.
