Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We love to hear stories of our employees' growth within the company and are proud of our Sales Enablement and Talent and Development teams for the work they do in running trainings focused on feedback, management, Sales methodologies, effective career conversations and more. We recognize that as we experience this hyper growth as a company, we'll inevitably face challenges, including difficult recruiting markets. But stacking our teams for success is a top priority of the business, and our Recruiting team is working hard to build our teams to ensure our reps are hitting quota and feeling supported and successful. Feedback like this helps us continue to improve as we seek to become a better and more inclusive company for our employees every day, so thank you for taking the time to leave this review.
