Pros

Some good people Nice office Good product

Cons

The company is having the same issues repeatedly and they are just not listening. The culture is toxic as employees continue to discuss the inexcusable behaviour from some management. Employee satisfaction is at an all time low resulting in an increasing number of people leaving. Promotions have been halted and pay has become very uncompetitive. Anonymous feedback has been shared about UK managers but the severity continues to be played down. Inconsistent connected rec is handed out and so there is always deserved appreciation missed. Managers should be using a budget every quarter to encourage consistent review of efforts. My work from home equipment expenses were rejected unfairly. Global reps have knowingly taken revenue belonging to Germany and the UK but allowed by Sales ops. Fading sales atmosphere and increasing partner efforts pushed onto sales. Director favouring manager over employees in situations raised and benefits being selectively offered. No pay reviews at all only for changing role.

Pros

Great office Great events from time to time Some really great people that make a huge difference Some great leaders who really care

Cons

Lots of revenue stealing by same people but no action taken. Technical training done poorly. No career progression or pay rises since over a year due to Covid even if deserved or due. Unequal patches so impossible to measure rep success. Countless manager issues raised with Director but nothing being listened to or worked on. Happiness dependent on manager so difficult to love the job. Managers discussing team confidential info even though asked not to so many times. Micro management that makes work not enjoyable. Club incentive given to people unfairly and promotions based on inaccurate success. Reps unbooking and rebooking deals and getting recognition each time. No action taken on those who steal deals so people will continue to do it. Losing good people because no one is listening to the problems. Popular people rewarded. Targets are increasing but rewards and career progression is at a halt. Hard to justify staying

Pros

-Nice benefits, lunch -Great teams you hire for, very close knit community

Cons

Unequal treatment throughout the Recruiting organization, desperately needs to hire Director of TA to standardize practices within the 4 orgs. Major inequality within departments: -Pay: huge disparities in departments- Eng & Sales get paid most closely to market value -Treatment/ flexibility: Some managers/departments are very trusting and relaxed, others you should stay away from (ask about retention & attrition when interviewing). Some teams have flexibility to work from home/ remote, while others there is no such thing -Career growth: all orgs seem to struggle with providing guidance and challenging IC in their next steps Overall, you could be the most average person and get a job here. They don't believe in firing people, which is a benefit for under-achievers or pot-stirrers.
