A Sad Collapse

Pros

It is good for one or two net new reps a year. And for installed base reps it is generally okay. Benefits are good but not great. Suggestions if you are serious about joining as an AE: -Reach out to current and former AEs yourself...randomly...via LinkedIn. Don't take the chosen ones they would feed you. -Don't go net new. -The company may be for you if you are young in your career and need some experience. The company is not for you if you have a history of attainment and like to make money. -Don't focus on OTE. Most reps do not make their number. Assume you get none of that. Only factor in your base and the value of the experience.

Cons

The culture is toxic in some areas. Reps having 4,5,6 RVPs in one or two years. One leader had to be demoted and was particularly awful, putting on plan and/or firing more than 5 people in less than 18 months. AEs are not making money either. Average attainment of Enterprise reps is around 10%, and even that may be generous. Consistently <5 net new Enterprise logos each quarter. Most growth is coming from the installed base. Leadership has no real trust. New Executives are the laughing stock of the troops on the ground. Many sales leaders speak particularly poorly of the new CEO. Openly to their teams. Yikes!

What a Waste

Pros

Great technology best in the space. Value Engineers amongst the best I have worked with.

Cons

Thoma Brava absolutely crushed the culture of this company. They are PE thru and thru. They are going to make their number regardless of who they need to get rid of. The new CEO is absolutely uninspiring and every time she addresses the “troops” the snickering is quite prevalent.
