Pros

This place was thriving, fun and an exciting place to be!

Cons

Not any more!! Moral is at an all time low with no one hitting quota, no formal training, no leadership left (who is left, are not leaders). Everyone I know still here is looking for a job as its only a matter of time before we all go except for the AM team. Did I mention poor pay, well its bad.

Leadership is a joke

Pros

The pay is decent You have the opportunity to influence processes and make an impact because it is a small company There were good people on my team

Cons

The morale has never been lower at this company after the exodus of AEs during Q2 and Q3, the removal of senior leadership and the lack of vision from the top. You brought and fired 15-20 reps with no plan for training or ramping them properly. You could make the argument that there was no vision to begin with and they are making it up as they go, which would explain why they released a product that had already been on the market for a while with bare functionality and non competitive pricing. What do they talk about during weekly meetings? The amount of calls you are making, person by person. So inspiring! How you should work 60 hours a week to make quota so you can spend a 4 day weekend on the beach once a year. So cool! With the recent changes, the culture at this company is non existent. They don't put a second of thought into whether people actually enjoy being at the company, just about how much they squeeze out of people and work them constantly while pushing below market pay, unrealistic quotas, and poor commission plans on the entire org. The amount of aggression from senior leadership is unreal, while simultaneously spousing half rate sales tactics to close low revenue deals. Your "Hide the price until the very end" is a cheap sales trick any prospect can see through, and then you go back and forth on "discounts" like a used car sales man instead of teaching people how to actually sell on value. You have an unoriginal, stale sales process and value proposition that AEs just go through the motions with while quietly looking for other jobs and venting to their peers. The communication between different teams is non existent as it is "every manager and team for themselves" and they repeatedly show that they don't care if other teams are drowning. Where did siloed information mentality come from? The top. The teams are so stressed with their own quotas, that they won't spend a second helping anyone else. The only functioning team is the UK and ENT because they were able to set up shop before the regime was installed. Marketing is a joke, will always be a joke, they're ineffective at their jobs and should be sacked. If you are reading this and wondering if you should stay at Agility, know that your time will be wasted, as they will fire you or "lay you off" the second the bottom line doesn't look right. Did you do something wrong? They will hold that against you for months on end, and use it as a reason to not promote you. You will literally always be a number to these people and they will never care about you.

Pros

The only pro I can think of is that they actually invest in your training at first, but that's the extent of it.

Cons

After the training, you're on your own. They expect you to work overtime in order to find what you don't know, and actively encourage it. It's said openly a few times a week to work extra for free. In fact, you're often coerced to work on your day off under threats by management. If a task isn't done, you get punished by not given access to quality leads, and there is never a feeling of job security. There is ALWAYS a push and the changes are non-stop. The turnover is insanely high. 90%+ of everyone I knew at the beginning is gone. And NOBODY hits quota. Not even the top sales reps. If you're looking to make money, stay away from Agility.

Thank you for your time in sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear about your experience and not receiving the right support to be successful in your role – it certainly does not reflect the best of who we are as an organization. As we continue to grow as an organization and in market share, it has certainly been a busy period for our sales team. And that has made us focus even more on equipping our Account Executives (AEs) with the right support – through ongoing training and learning, being mentored by other experienced AEs and managers, a strong ramp period and commission structure as well as a KPI-based career progression framework. We focus as much on winning big deals as on respecting personal time and well-being - which keeps everyone well rested, happy, and focused on the next win. We are disappointed to not have delivered the same strong support and enabling work environment to you and will certainly make the best use of your feedback to improve ourselves further. Wishing you the best!
