Pros

I am amazed everyday and cannot believe that this place is real. From day one it was everything I ever hoped for and more...and I started when there were small. I have seen the challenges, growth and the celebrations of success. Still everyday is a new task that we all take on willingly. Why? Its very simple my goals are your goals, we support each other in our roles and accomplishments. It doesn't matter which department that your in or where you are on the ladder. Management respects you, listens to your ideas and you rewarded for your achievements. The money is great, but nothing compares to a high-five from the Ceo for a job well done. Someone actually came in for an interview and asked if they could hang out for awhile. See what the jobs really about. They said to me this doesn't seem real. Everyone seems so happy. My reply, Dreams sometimes do come true.

Cons

It can be stressful, especially if you always want to be the winner. Sometimes you have to let others shine. With the fast growth comes more people and the dynamics still have to be worked out. Based on volume and responsibilities it can be difficult to keep up.

Pros

Great office snacks, free ev charging, cool coworkers

Cons

Out of about 100 AE's only 10 hit Quota, OTE is a joke there. It's possible to hit quota if you are lucky with your inbound leads, but if you want to hit quota every month you have to do something moreso out of the box. I was trained by hard closers and have a lot of expierence with cold calls so i came up with my own script and was getting a demo a day, and was doing a demo a day. The demos did lead to sales as well, so it wasn't a waste of time. I got fired because of a "lack of professionalism" I spoke off script all the time because speaking on script leads you in to the Kool-aid drinkers club, aka not hitting quota consistently. I was fired without warning, even though I was told I had an incredible work ethic and was exceeding the ramp-up numbers. I just didnt match their sales style, they are not looking for salespeople, they are looking for sales associates. They make you work 9-hour days, 1 hour mandatory lunch that has to be taken in the middle of the day. 9-6pm. Their handbook even says you are allowed to take this lunch at 5 pm to go home sooner, but the managers never let that happen. DO NOT BE CREATIVE AT THIS JOB, DRINK THE JUICE.
