Pros

The product really is amazing and many of the employees who work here are great people. The office is always stocked with free beer and lunch is frequently provided. The free shuttle from nyc to the office is also a big plus, the drivers are super friendly!

Cons

Management is awful. The problem starts at the very top and trickles all the way down. There is no transparency here. People are fired and then the company goes out of their way to hide it. No annual reviews, no raises, no sick days, limited PTO. Since covid we are working crazy hours, you never feel off the clock, turnover is increasing rapidly (despite the company doing well), and moral is at an all time low. Don't be fooled by all these one or two line 5 star reviews that management is having HR write. Yes, your experience will vary depending on your department and many of us feel lucky just to have a job but that never excuses such poor treatment.

Pros

As a leader, sometimes you step into a new role and despite all your due diligence, it's a dumpster fire. Things are broken in ways you wouldn’t have predicted. At OwnBackup, that wasn’t the case. From day one I was so impressed by the caliber of people and the levels of trust across teams. Not only that but the fundamentals of the business were so strong. 98% of customers are five stars, growing very fast in-spite of the pandemic, the company is really well funded, and there is a huge addressable market to expand into. When you’re at a company that is culturally strong and doubling y/y it provides an amazing platform to grow your career and attract top talent to join the team.

Cons

I'd say the con is that backup and recovery doesn't come across as the sexiest business on the surface. If you get past that and see the strategic importance of data; both as a company's greatest asset and greatest liability (PII, compliance, ransomware, lost, corrupted), you start to how big this category will become. It's applicable not just to Salesforce, but data stored in all sorts of different cloud platforms.
