This is what it feels like to be driving and riding a rocketship. You will be surrounded by some of the thoughtful, intelligent professionals you will ever encounter. Everyone raises the bar for each other. The pace is intense and you will be constantly challenged. The leadership is exceptional and brings the best out of people. One thing is sure: you will grow professionally and personally from working here.
Cons
This place is not for everybody, and not for the faint of heart. You need to be in the right mindset and be able to keep up. You'll need some serious time management skills and be able to think on your feet. Process / infrastructure is perpetually catching up with the business, so be prepared to drive every detail yourself in order to get something done (e.g. closing a deal, introducing a new product or hiring someone).

Thanks for your review! I share your perspective on the immense challenge and rewards. Keep up the good work!
If you have great Core AEs, you get to do the fun part of sales which is selling. The product is good and we are constantly evolving our product. Salesforce install base and name recognition helps get you a lot of at bats.
Cons
SMB culture can be draining. There is less emphasis on being a strategic product expert and more on volume based selling. This may be where the business needs to go, but logging every minute of your day, being a great co prime, and functioning as a BDR is tough. There are also a lot of stellar performers and others on the exact same team who may have closed nothing.
