Pros

There were fantastic peoe working there, all of which would help you in anyway possible, as long as they were not a part of the management team. Most of those peoe have been let go or fired at this point. Great customers and great product that needs less selling and more focus on creating a better quality, easier to use product.

Cons

Management - Yes, they'll pay for you to train on a $12,000 system, during work hours. But, they'll ream you out for not meeting your daily metrics in day, because the CEO wasted 2 hours preaching the next big thing, another 2 hours on useless training, leaving you overworked, disrespected, unwanted, and even fired. More money is wasted on useless tools, unnecessary equipment, and daily snacks instead of a quality management team. Also, false sense of security and growth potential. The only way to grow at RingLead is through monthly turn overs or quarterly management reshuffle.

RingLead Response

Thanks for taking the time to respond. The strong focus on training comes from the CEO, Chris Hickey, and Executive Chairman, Russ Artzt, who together helped build a 4 billion dollar company, CA technologies. In order to push RingLead to reach that kind of success, RingLead has a performance based culture where expectations are clearly outlined and signed prior to each employees start date and these metrics are evaluated month to month. The majority of our employees meet or exceed expectations on a monthly basis or show improvement. These employees are granted stock options in RingLead at the end of the year. Our goal is for all RingLead employees to be equity owners in RingLead. We have never had an employee who was achieving leave RingLead. We wish you luck in your next position.

Pros

This job is not for someone who wants to just idly sit by and do menial tasks. This place is for people who want to innovate, discover, create, and be open to learning new things. You must be a self-starter, self-motivator, and self-sustained. Whatever position you're in, you need to be a team player and you need to be ready to bring your skills to the table. This is not just a regular 9-5 company and coming in you need to realize that this is a start-up culture building the foundation for the future. The people that I work with are amazing, intelligent, curious, and always willing to help in whatever way that they can. If you're ready for a challenge, ready to really test your skills, really ready to be a part of a team then I urge you to take the time to really get to know RingLead at its core. I have learned so many things in my short time here so far and beyond the mess, the future looks bright.

Cons

Management may be a bit harsh and a bit in your face but that just comes with the territory. I have worked for other companies before with bosses that were ten times worse. You need to realize that we're trying to build a business and that sometimes it may not be easy.
