Quantcast Reviews

Cons

Every company has pros and cons. I feel like our pros outweigh the cons.

Cons

Awful executive team. The reviews here are accurate. The company's executive team and decisions from 2016-7 were irrational. Made poor decisions in both commercial and engineering orgs. Hired an entire commercial org with no clue about the product they sold and did nothing. Promoted and hired employees who ran dictatorial regimes. Did not listen to customers nor employees on the front lines. Fought with each other. Maybe new executive team can do better.

Violent ReOrgs. Constantly re-orging new orgs that were never broken. It was the product and market positioning that was broken.

Worsening culture. Teams constantly bad mouth each other. No spirit of cooperation. Hired people with bad personalities and/or poor abilities.

Overburdened staff. AM staff is asked to do the impossible.

Zero respect for commercial team. Thought of as second class citizens. Lost more than 70% of team since I joined.

Cons

Management is an absolute mess. The C-Level can't decide where their focus is, and the CEO is so disengaged from what's actually going on on the ground. Decisions are made in silos and don't take into account the negative impact on morale.

Cons

- Sales people incentivized to sell through unworkable accounts leading to beginning nearly every new client relationship deep in the red

-Very poor product commercialization - new products unsellable, unsupported and/or dysfunctional

- Product leadership allowed to stay on and let business offerings stagnate for last two years of tenure, customer teams ultimately blamed for stagnating/churning accounts

- Customer teams embroiled daily in nitty-gritty troubleshooting tasks

- Much-needed positions not backfilled for an entire year, leaving many ICs to shoulder the burden of 2x their original workload with zero promotions/comp increases

- The forthcoming reprieve in all the above that management tries to sell customer team ICs on is much, much too far in the future for anyone who has lived through the irrational upheaval of the past year to either care about or believe

Cons

Leadership is a mess. Constant reorgs. You have to be buddies with people to succeed.

Cons

The market has passed them by while Executive Leadership Team stood by and argued with each other, blamed sales for not being able to sell/grow an undifferentiated product and engaged in schoolyard type rivalries to the detriment of what could have been a game changing product. Very disappointing.

Cons

No direction. Product does not compete and the CEO refuses to adjust to the market. The future is questionable.

Cons

Given the quality of the hiring, the salary is not so competitive comparing to other unicorns. The company does provide good stock options and refresh yearly but it has risk and requires strong confidence of the company's future.

Cons

No sense of direction. No product innovation. Confusing messaging. Constant state of major change.

Change is normal, but this isn't change, this is straight up insanity. Sales teams don't know how to talk about the 'product' because marketing is changing the message on a weekly basis. I'm so confused I don't even know what to say when people ask what I do.

Some solid hires are being made in the leadership level but there is no one to actually execute on the visions because every smart person is feed up and leaving the organization.

Cons

No 401k match (but stock options); Recent AM reorg was disruptive.
