Pros

I love my job. There is always so much going on, and every week is fast paced and exciting. Because the company is so young, I am able to interact with all members of the company daily and really feel like my voice is heard. As a group, we have a very strong focus on building a product that we are proud of and that we want to be users of ourselves. This mentality has built a strong foundation for a team with strong work ethics and no room or desire for egos getting in the way. Mentorship has also been awesome here. I started as a fairly junior engineer, and over the course of my time here I have received guidance and support from every member of our engineering team. This includes our two awesome founders, who take the time and care to work with all of their employees towards growing a great team and building a product that we can all be proud of.

Cons

For me, there really haven’t been any cons. If working at a startup is not for you, then right now, Sigma probably is not the right fit. But if you want to work at a young company, then any growing pains are worth the opportunity you will find here.

Strong talent Good pay and perks Large acv

Cons

Simply calling this organization political doesn't illustrate how conniving leadership is here. Strong favoritism and disregard for merit. Saw really talented individuals sabotaged because their existence undermined another's agenda. Falling behind on AI. We used to be the innovative company in this space but now we're months behind from our competitors. Our success historically has nothing to do with our capabilities it's how we brand our capabilities. We do much more selling of our roadmap versus selling what we actually do. Leadership is just looking for a liquidity event to line their pockets and dip. When a company's sole purpose is to cash out it means they don't see long-term value in our space. Great companies that will be around for the long run are looking to capture market, organizations with little to contribute to a space look to get paid out. We'll be another Sisense, Domo, or thoughtspot nothing more. If you are good at brown nosing this is the place for you. But even then you'll stay in your seat forever. There is little upward mobility in this company. They look to pay for external talent over generating a culture of growth. Not a good place to be early on in your career. When you build an army of mercenaries everyone flees at this first sign of trouble.
