Pros

Good compensation, WFH with occasional travel

Cons

Management often pushes developers to work at “Dandy speed,” yet the expectations are intentionally vague, which makes it easy to continually demand more output. Several managers don't respect, the concept of work-life balance is not respected, and engineers who do not regularly work extended hours are viewed negatively. The company is also aggressively pursuing automation while frequently downsizing, which contributes to a sense of instability. Prospective employees should be aware that layoffs are relatively common and job security can be uncertain.

Pros

-Get to focus on phones and conversations versus trying to standout in other crowded channels like LinkedIn and email, etc. -Opportunity is there to succeed and do pretty well if you can figure out what's working well for the top performers and then hone your own craft or way of doing it. -No company is perfect but it feels like a solid service/product/technology that we're pitching and the company has earned recognition for innovation in the digital dentistry space + has a proven list of customer success stories.

Cons

-There's still some room to improve lead generation enrichment and improve CRM hygiene. -Solid BDR managers but have been spread a little thin lately as the company and teams grow or transition. -It can take a lot of work to hit quota and it can be a grind month to month with seasonality or lead quality having an outsized impact at times.
