Pros

Talented, fun people on the sales and customer success team CEO is great.

Cons

Starting at the top, HR here is the biggest gossiper in the organization. So unprofessional, talks out of both sides of her mouth and is horrible to deal with. The top person in Boston is very grumpy and plays favorites. If you are not from his home town or one of his people you do not exist. Never involved but randomly acts like he is and sends out really inauthentic updates to the entire organization. Marketing team is the least effective team in the company and the worst I have seen (5 companies I have worked for). Call meetings asking others to do their work for them. Sales management adds no value to the sales team. Tons of dead weight in management and on the closing sales team. Amazing we are still winning deals, that will dry up soon without change. The culture we all signed up for is gone. Everyone keeps to themselves, when we do socialize which is rare the leader in Boston grabs his friends and goes to a different part of the building (last quarter end party) I have been here 2 years and the first year was amazing, everyone loved coming to work and felt like a real team. My second year has felt like a kick in the stomach. There is no room to grow a career here anymore. All the hires are external and the promotions are not great.

Pros

Nice people and work life balance.

Cons

Noise, immaturity, loud, most of your 26-year-old coworkers all grew up playing hockey together. I really wouldn't send my sister to work here.

Pros

Remote first work environment, flexible schedule, work life balance, progressive benefits

Cons

Caution - the company is doing layoffs. While some employees are losing their jobs, the company is bragging about their new state-of-the-art office in San Diego, which remains empty most of the time. Meanwhile, the new CMO is boasting on LinkedIn about her company-funded European adventures, team dinners and happy hours, and the rest of the company is posting about how Seismic is winning Top Workplace awards. We went from having our best quarter in Q4 2022 to missing our sales targets by 20M two quarters later. The company isn't doing well. Think twice before you accept a job here.
