Pros

The Executive team is truly making steering us in a positive direction. They're approachable if and when you need help. There's growth opportunities as the company continues to scale and the Product team is rolling out exciting new features our customers share positive feedback on. Had the opportunity to build stronger relationships with our GTM teams at our 2024 Bootcamp in Spain and the CSM breakout sessions were really impactful. I feel supported from leadership and pushed/encouraged when there are areas I can continue to improve on. There are great benefits and good opportunities to step into projects or ERGs and make an impact on the company. I also love that we have Give Back Days to volunteer in the community and a CEO that shows his fun side by jumping into the Polar Plunge Ice with us for a great cause.

Cons

I wish GTM or CS had an annual meetup or at one direct team meetup. We have top talent that we work with for many days of our lives and it would be nice to get together at least once a year where we do some team training/work sessions and team bonding activities. I also wish our 401K was a little bit more.
