Pros

Great compensation but not worth it.. Seriously don't be me 2 years ago.. I looked past and sold my soul for a good base.

Cons

From top down the management team is awful. They will only hire managers externally that listen to every command ( dog like behavior ), any decent or self respected manager will be denied or quit within the first few weeks.. They will not promote internally, don't get your hopes up if they promise you that in your interview ( they do this for everyone ). Trust me!! When I tell you, that sooner or later you will break. The managers will HOUND you for everything.. The managers don't do anything to support you here, other than hound you for the forecast.. They will throw you on a PIP for anything after your 6 month ramp. SF hygiene, Sales, Not having camera on for team meetings, providing feedback, etc... Close a deal that's work 5 months of quota?? Does not matter, that was last month buddy. If you do not hit quota 2 months in a row, go find a new job, you are gone. Consistency is the name of the game here.. and let me guess you are reading this and thinking oh its not that bad, they send you leads.. HAH the leads are marketed at $8 pepm.. Every sales call is an uphill battle now, its a bait and switch. This company is one of the most expensive tools on the market. You do what you want at the end of the day.. but stay at your current job. This is by far the worst experience I have ever had, and I am simply still here. Cannot wait for my next role.

Pros

I have only been at Rippling for a month at this point, but so far so good! The onboarding and training are top tier. Definitely the best and most in depth training I have gotten at a company. My manager is great and was also an IC at Rippling for a couple years before moving into management which I really like because they understand what it is like to be an account manager here. There seems to be a lot of opportunity for career growth here. I am definitely excited to be here!

Cons

Not really a con but you HAVE to be self sufficient here. People are willing to help but they are also very busy so it might be a while before you get a response to a question. It was an adjustment at first but I think it makes you a better employee. If you need hand holding probably not the job for you. I don't really have any true cons yet, but ask me again in 6 months lol.
