Pros

Good rank and file employees

Cons

CEO - Public Servant. Needs to go back to UK Government President - Crabby man that only knows how to sell "friends and family" US MD - Man hating, clueless about sales that is inspirational as a potted plant HR - Taking their lead from the old Soviet Union "Hope" is the strategy - Price increase for growth; Cloud is not ready for prime time; horrible internal tools (CEO promised to fix this over 3 years ago); questionable revenue recognition for partner deals

Pros

was hired as remote and get to have that honored, but have been openly told no career progression because of remote status. decent pay

Cons

Leadership instability: Seven manager changes during my relatively short tenure. Unrealistic targets: A sales quota set at 1,100% growth (not a typo). Slow product development: Getting anything actioned on the product side takes far too long. Product management turnover: Three product manager changes, resulting in no meaningful deliverables in over three years. Misaligned hiring priorities: Greater emphasis on DEI optics than on hiring people positioned to drive growth. Internal vs. customer focus: More energy spent on internal events than on product enhancements. Lack of accountability (the biggest issue): No one takes ownership. Responsibility gets passed around constantly — for example, client cancellations going unprocessed because they impact someone's numbers. Managers have openly encouraged pushing the work onto someone else rather than handling it.
