Pluspunten

WFH. Generally employees are kind.

Minpunten

Nearly impossible to hit quota consistently. If you have a customer churn it goes against your number. If you close a $50K deal and then get $50K of churn (even if a company goes bankrupt or ceases to exist) it nets out to $0. When you join they don’t give you your full OTE in your first couple months (only half of your variable comp guaranteed) this was a surprise to me when I joined.

Pluspunten

OK pay or benefits in the market. Fully remote. Still is trying to frame itself as a big player.

Minpunten

Leadership went from being collaborative, communicative, and transparent, to being mercurial, secretive, and out of touch with the actual work. OBSESSSES over your AI usage metrics - even if AI doesn't help you and slows you down. The current layoff in progress was communicated poorly and not planned at all. And now they want us to adore the leaders and the company? Cultish vibes. We went from a company that plans ahead to a company that reacts.
