Pros

Great salary Great benefits Founding CEO's heart in the right place.

Cons

Culture has notably changed in the past 2 years. Management is more threatening and managing by fear and reproach. Multiple bosses have encroached into my private life asking for justification on a personal day or the nature of other personal matters. Management goals do not align with team member goals which leads to management threatening you to help them with their goals rather than a fostering a team effort. Culture of reproach Leadership routinely "beats up" management which gets passed down to individual contributors. Contrarian views are encourage and then reproached. A burdensome amount of administrative work that gets in the way of your job. Employees get notifications to take action in too many places to effectively manage (email, quip, google shared docs, text message, phone calls, chatter, communities, etc)

Pros

there are really none except compensation

Cons

terrible location to commute to. we came through a buy out. first year was good. second year was bad. All top people of my startup were forced out after less then 2 years. we were given crap tasks to do after a year with tons of politics and terrible management. Management changes by the minute.

Pros

Phenomenal benefits, amazing CEO and opportunity for rapid growth.

Cons

Management are given too much power to determine who will succeed and fail. Managers will choose favorites and provide them with 5x the amount of accounts (150-200), while others are given (20-35) and they fail. Timing, territory and talent (in that order) determine success, but I’ve watched too many qualified candidates be “coached out,” while managers can’t staff a full team. Also the pay is low compared to our competition.
