Pros

Benefits and pay are okay

Cons

Company is not growing as fast as our investor expect. As a result the focus is on cost cutting and we are becoming less customer centric. Our values are only marketing, top leadership does not care about employees. We should be more honest and say we are all about increasing revenue and profitability. 90% of net new AE in my region are not even close to quota. Lack of resources and support across the board. Very limited partner ecosystem in our region compared to sap and Oracle.

Pros

Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

Cons

Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
