Pros

Good product and great energy on the product and development side

Cons

Poor sales leadership and very reactive. Also forcing some good people out the door to competitors. CEO is smart and savvy, but COO he brought in is in over his head.

We agree that we should be investing in our people, and have an even stronger dedication to this initiative as a priority in 2018. We made a significant investment in our Sales team in 2017 and experienced impressive results from this initiative. We will continue to invest in this very important team at Twilio; both with our longer tenured team and our new hires. We encourage you to reach out to your leaders with specific concerns or ways to improve.
