Pros

Meraki has excellent products and provides top tier customer support. Todd Nightingale had a solid vision for the company and corporate culture. Enjoyable and helpful “boot camp” for new hires. Helpful tools for new folks to become immersed in the industry. The SF office has nice amenities and a great view.

Cons

The companies “mission, vision and values” are not in alignment with the culture on the sales floor. Tech bro behavior runs rampant. As a result there are cliques reminiscent of high school. Individual contributor experience is dependent on who your Inside Sales Manager is. Some are great, and some show blatant favoritism. When interviewing for a promotion, reps have to “network” with the team aka win a popularity contest. It is also openly acknowledged that people will have to interview multiple times for a role. Consequently, when you interview there will be people who “paid their dues” and are in the queue before you. OTE is under the industry standard. Reps who have the same sales goals, account types (SMB, Mid-Market) and KPIs have varying levels of OTE. This is based on the year of hire and/or grade level which can be subjective. Pro Tip: When accepting an offer or promotion, ensure you confirm your grade level review the criteria.

Pros

Work life balance, remote and/or hybrid work (very flexible), opportunities for growth especially in greater Cisco

Cons

- inside sales managers are young in their careers, big culture of micro management creating bad team culture - unrealistic sales quotas and goals - few opportunities for a raise in current role. Almost seems like they want you to leave as their is no incentive to grow in your current role after ~year
