Pros

The products are cool and the work you ultimately end up doing has impact with customers.

Cons

Managers and executives constantly stress "collaboration across teams" but most teams seem to only be responsive when convenient. The teams will happily communicate with you when they stand to benefit but all of a sudden have "higher priorities" when you need their help. The other teams "care" in the "fake" sense of caring. The earlier years were much more productive and fruitful. As we've grown, we haven't quite adapted and it's clear that there are lots of growing pains across the organization. Politics is at an all-time high with the final fiscal quarter coming up (as it always seems to be this time of year). Those who have suggestions for improvement are shot down in favor of features that "win the next big deal" even when piling on tech debt.

Pros

Some good people Nice office Good product

Cons

The company is having the same issues repeatedly and they are just not listening. The culture is toxic as employees continue to discuss the inexcusable behaviour from some management. Employee satisfaction is at an all time low resulting in an increasing number of people leaving. Promotions have been halted and pay has become very uncompetitive. Anonymous feedback has been shared about UK managers but the severity continues to be played down. Inconsistent connected rec is handed out and so there is always deserved appreciation missed. Managers should be using a budget every quarter to encourage consistent review of efforts. My work from home equipment expenses were rejected unfairly. Global reps have knowingly taken revenue belonging to Germany and the UK but allowed by Sales ops. Fading sales atmosphere and increasing partner efforts pushed onto sales. Director favouring manager over employees in situations raised and benefits being selectively offered. No pay reviews at all only for changing role.

Pros

Great office Great events from time to time Some really great people that make a huge difference Some great leaders who really care

Cons

Lots of revenue stealing by same people but no action taken. Technical training done poorly. No career progression or pay rises since over a year due to Covid even if deserved or due. Unequal patches so impossible to measure rep success. Countless manager issues raised with Director but nothing being listened to or worked on. Happiness dependent on manager so difficult to love the job. Managers discussing team confidential info even though asked not to so many times. Micro management that makes work not enjoyable. Club incentive given to people unfairly and promotions based on inaccurate success. Reps unbooking and rebooking deals and getting recognition each time. No action taken on those who steal deals so people will continue to do it. Losing good people because no one is listening to the problems. Popular people rewarded. Targets are increasing but rewards and career progression is at a halt. Hard to justify staying
