Pros

Like the remote remote work Co workers are nice Base pay is good

Cons

From a sales perspective the sale cycle is way too long. But that s more of a nit pick. There is a large disconnect with leadership and not consistent messaging. The most concerning part is the mass exit of leadership. Been year just shy of a year. There has been 6 leaders who left very quickly in the last 6 months. Three of which were at the Csuite level. There is a general strange feeling in the air.

Pros

Benefits, great management, teammates were helpful

Cons

Workload was overwhelming, lack of training on day-to-day tasks, training on overview of company was extremely overwhelming. Hustle training program was 8a-5p zoom meetings for 4 weeks and didn't prepare me for my actual role/position. I worked remote but had entirely too much of a workload to only work 40 hours a week.
