Pros

The organisation provides a modern tech stack, along with practical benefits such as free onsite parking and an onsite restaurant offering good quality food. There are strong learning and development opportunities, with notable investment in AI upskilling programmes, including apprenticeships. High performance in sales is well recognised and generously rewarded, as reflected in events such as the annual awards ceremony.

Cons

The working environment felt unstable and influenced by internal politics. People were open about wanting to see others fail. There was a strong sense of competition, which made it difficult to build trust, as many appeared focused on demonstrating return on investment amid ongoing concerns about when the next restructure and round of redundancy will hit. There is also a clear emphasis on in-person attendance, with office presence mandated and monitored at a minimum of two days per week. This policy is applied consistently across roles, regardless of previous agreements or individual working preferences. This was my first role in a GTM environment, so some of these dynamics may be typical. I am aware that many employees are happy and have built long tenures within the organisation. Ultimately, however, it was not the right fit for me, and I decided early on that it was best to move on.

Pros

The fact they had Remote work

Cons

In my experience, management lacked consistency, transparency, and empathy when addressing employee concerns. After dedicating nearly 16 years to the company, I felt my years of service and commitment were not meaningfully considered when employment decisions were made. I received my first disciplinary action in February 2026 related to FMLA reporting requirements. From my perspective, I was placed on a final corrective action without prior coaching or progressive discipline, which I found surprising after many years with the company. A few months later, I was terminated following a security-related incident while working remotely. I felt I was not given a meaningful opportunity to explain the circumstances before the decision was made, leaving me with the impression that the outcome had already been determined. I also experienced frustration when seeking guidance from Human Resources regarding bereavement policies. I did not feel my concerns were fully addressed or that I received clear explanations to help me understand the company’s position. Overall, I left feeling unsupported and believing that HR’s primary role was to protect the organization’s interests rather than advocate for employees. While every workplace must uphold policies and compliance standards, I believe there should also be room for fairness, open communication, and consideration of an employee’s long-standing dedication and overall performance. My experience left me feeling undervalued and, ultimately, discarded after nearly 16 years of loyal service.
