Pros

. Great team members . Great for female contributors (the new director is absolutely focused on making women feel like they belong) . Great networking opportunities and events . Over average compensation benefits (if you hit targets, you can easily make $130k and more)

Cons

. Representatives are hired in packs which leads to reps that are hired together getting too cliquish. They typically gossip about others and intimidate new team members. . The new director is drunk with power. While he is making sure women progress with their jobs, men are being laid off constantly regardless of performance (about 20 male contributors were laid off since Jan 2023 while only 2 women were given severance packages). . Not much of autonomy. Quotas are getting much harder to hit and people are unhappy. . They promote a hybrid model of work but expect to go to the office 4 to 5 days a week - not really hybrid . A dude bro culture where white and Caucasian males are seen as superior

Pros

Honestly still have the core of what a start up culture would have. Really flexible, super understanding and lots of room for growth

Cons

The Salesforce merger wasn’t that great culture wise
