Pros

the sector is a good one, good basic salary, some intelligent people work there, office locations are good...gosh I've got to get to 20 word minimum and I am done with the pros.

Cons

Poor leadership, highly inexperienced management, especially those early days hires who were then promoted to directors...oh their arrogance...product strategy is poor. In the enterprise space competitors are winning almost every time against Percolate...clients churn is scary, very few new clients signed quarterly... most business decisions such as hiring plans and following layoffs., product pricing changes...all out of a "how not to run a startup" for dummies manual. Plenty of proper companies to work for out there, Percolate isn't one of them.

Pros

- Extremely smart people on the business and product teams - Nice office space in Soho - Great client roster - Opportunity to move up on certain teams - Smart founders who understand the space and can clearly communicate the vision

Cons

- No appreciation for employees: we talk about a "Great culture" but the day to day says differently - No transparency or visibility in any capacity of the company; I've been there for a long time and have absolutely no idea the % of shares I own - People leave or get fired and no one is told about it so people walk around asking for this person without realizing they have left - Product is behind the market in many aspects - Sales environment is really, really bad. No leadership at all and you can feel the stress level every day. Feels like a Boiler Room type of environment. - A lot of talented people leaving the company
