Pros

+ Pre IPO. + Competitive environment. If you enjoy working on new stuff or see your ideas come to life this company is for you. + Brainstorming and open discussions is the norm. + Growth is guaranteed if you perform. Unless you are an a_hole to people or a true slacker you are well taken care of + Fun social life. We have food drinks and social groups for softball, soccer, sailing, jam sessions, bar meetings BEER WINE TASTING etc really cool people

Cons

- Depending on which team you are, you might end up working on weekends here and there or at midnights - If you are on a Visa ask first what to expect due the lawyers are not really good at following up

Pros

Good company benefits - private healthcare, employee stock purchase programme Annual sales kickoff

Cons

All calls & emails are now monitored. Graded & tracked on your calls. New requirement is now to have 50+ calls a month recorded in Gong (Gong was previously phased out but now a requirement). Pay rises are low, false promises each year of promotions & generous pay rises Team members favoured over others Work life balance now near on impossible with all the new asks put in place
