Salespeople beware - Account Executive AppDynamics Employee Review

Extreme micro management and process / data entry. If you’re an above average sales person, you will hate working here. There is no work/life balance... you’ll be expected to work on the weekends (data entry and receive multiple emails with actions on a Sunday as an example) Managers manage down and have no idea how to manage up. Monkeys (managers) and robots (salespeople). Product is not easy to sell, it’s hard to implement and very expensive, so if customers don’t have a consistent or huge application issue that impacts their business, they will not buy. This is a luck of the draw type of situation. Your territory may not have orgs with perceived big application issues and you will make no money while being micromanaged. Very stressful job Cisco has taken over comp plans, so much harder to make money and they are over hiring so smaller territories. The wave has crashed
