I've been at Glassdoor as an Enterprise Account Executive for just over a year now, and I have to say I don't think that I could ever work anywhere else. I've never seen such a genuine focus on transparency and accountability, and I feel empowered to be true to myself. When I first joined my manager told me that "Not everyone will be your type of person, but everyone is a really good person.", and I've come to find that to be true every single day. Anywhere you go there are always miscommunications and frustrations working across different departments and teams, but at the end of the day everyone is seen as a person rather than an obstacle or just a worker. I've never had a situation that I went into assuming best intent and with a genuine attitude where I ever felt that wasn't reciprocated and I wasn't treated with respect. I've made some really close friends working here, and they're some of the most incredible people I've met in my entire life. I'm pretty happy with the pay and benefits, and I'm always finding competitions or incentives that let you bring in some extra $$ outside of just your standard commission check. They approach this in a pretty fair way, and with how much pretty much every member of the sales org continues to succeed, there's very few cases where any rep doesn't make more than their OTE. Paternity leave, fully paid healthcare premiums with a large HSA contribution that's almost as much as my deductible, and a really generous disability leave make me feel incredibly supported and valued. I feel a strong culture of innovation and striving to be better, while at the same time realizing that work is just one part of life. I've had some pretty serious health issues that have been challenging over the past few years, and for the first time I feel incredibly supported and enabled to grow and overachieve despite this. I've also found an incredible focus on career development as well as working on yourself personally and professionally. There's a huge focus on internal promotion and growth, and I'm excited for where things will be at 5 years from now. The last piece that I'll touch on is our amazing senior management. Whether it's the VP of sales being genuinely excited to see you and congratulating you on your last quarter, or someone on the C-suite sharing where we're headed over the next 5 years and carefully considering your questions, I feel incredibly inspired and honored to be a part of the team. Glassdoor is on a mission to do good in the world, and I truly feel like what I'm doing is making a difference.

You'll find in nearly any sales organization that there are some administrative restrictions and niche ways that sales/quotas are set up, and Glassdoor is no exception. There are more than a few things that you have to get used to, but the grace and support of everyone that you're working with doesn't make it seem like a big deal.
