Pros

If I wrote this a year ago, there would be some

Cons

Work Environment & Culture: -High pressure and poor work-life balance. -Burnout is normalized rather than addressed. -No consideration for workload capacity or realistic timelines. -Team culture deteriorated drastically: from positive to negative and unsafe. -Employees can’t speak up without retaliation. -Discrimination, racism, and lack of respect for multiculturalism are ignored. -Management openly makes fun of employees with others. -“Bad seeds” and cheaters are rewarded and promoted. Management & Leadership: -Leadership quality dropped significantly after early 2025 (previously strong in 2024). -Current management shows poor leadership, unrealistic expectations, gaslighting, bullying attitudes. -Lack of clear communication from leadership (decisions made without context). -“Tough conversations” are used as a cover to pressure employees into doing more, often outside their role. -Justifications for negative changes are framed as “keeping high standards.” -A lot of promises are made with no follow-through. Career & Development: -Little to no career development opportunities. -Career growth seems blocked in favor of rewarding the wrong people. Compensation: -Salary remains stagnant despite higher workload. -Compensation is not aligned with expectations or market value. Recognition & Fairness: -Hard work and results go unnoticed unless they fit management’s narrative. -Recognition seems biased or political, not merit-based. -Employees are treated unequally depending on favoritism.

Pros

Decent pay, unlimited PTO and good benefits

Cons

Leadership will tell you want you want to hear to keep you focused on being a BDR instead of helping you get promoted. Majority of AE type roles are not posted internally and do a ton of external hiring instead of promotions.
