Unstable platform and terrible culture.

Pros

Free lunch 3 times a week.

Cons

I realized very quickly how terrible the culture was. The "favorites" do whatever they please, and treat others with very little respect. The trend spreads into some of the management in certain departments and it is clear that no one gives a damn if you aren't part of the "cool clique." I have heard a lot of talking behind people's backs and it is an unhealthy and negative environment. Compensation does not compare to other start-ups in the area. Parking is terrible.

Pros

It is a good product that works

Cons

Recruitment lie about what the role is to get you through the door No trust in employees to do the role they are employed to do Treat supposed Senior AE's like inside sales reps Senior management don't understand Identity Don't want to work with partners yet they are employing scores of people to find new business where working with partners would be key

Dysfunctional Workplace - No Work-Life Balance

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Company culture, missions and values on paper sound great.

Cons

Do your research before pursuing a position in this company - short tenures and high turnover are rampant throughout the marketing org from top to bottom - morale is indicative of employee burnout, brought on by demanding work schedules and lack of work-life balance.
