Pros

Answers Product is incredibly powerful and compelling There are large deals that come in and that is the only way to hit your number - people who have been there for a while know how to game the system and favoritism plays a massive role.

Cons

CBU: A very small portion of AE's actually hit their number. - Expect to be in a position where you are consistently missing and there is limited to no help from management. - Fear based and metric driven - Outdated sales process that is carried over by old-school exec team - Little to No Inbound Prospects - no alignment with marketing (weird considering they are a "marketing" company) - High Level of Turn Over and a complete lack of transparency

The people will keep you there

Compensation is not competitive. Product team is a mess - mass turnover and as such it feels impossible to get jobs done.
