Pros

There are still many talented and hardworking employees there.

Cons

Constant restructuring, layoffs, and uncertainty. Pride themselves on objective unbiased reporting, yet now they want to enter into prediction markets. 25% layoff right before Q1 ended. Leadership executed a reverse stock split that heavily eroded shareholder value, only for the stock to continue falling and the company to be delisted from the NYSE shortly thereafter.

Pros

They provide you with a laptop.

Cons

Most people here couldn’t sell a burger at Burger King. Management is clueless and unqualified (a six grade classroom could lead better). Hard to find anyone to look up to and aspire to be like. Company is struggling (a lot) and it shows. Pay is a lot less than competitors. Didn’t always receive pay on time. Constant change and people leaving (entire departments and positions left unstaffed). Say they promote internally, but I only saw one or two people receive a promotion (and both struggled in their new roles). Quota is impossible to hit and no-one does, yet they don’t adjust it (less $ they have to pay their employees). Makes you feel disposable (even though it’s the product being sold that’s unpopular): easier to PIP, fire, and rehire. Unprofessional: most of the AE’s wear graphic tees on Zoom calls with customers. Office is falling apart and empty (about to be leased out). Internet stinks. Awkward work environment (feels uncomfortable and fake, like you’re in grade school). No connections. Stressed leaving two weeks notice, then told employees they had only a few days left once trying to put in their notice and do the right thing (struggling financially=can’t pay final two weeks). Anyone talented here leaves pretty quick.
