Cherwell Software Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

unlimited PTO and 401K match

Review from HR Dept

The Unlimited PTO plan is a great add!

Review from HR Dept

I dont feel this question is relevant as the compensation package is non-negotiable!

Review from Sales Dept

Generous base salary and no caps on commission, plus a 4% 401k match after your first year

Review from Sales Dept

The Commission Plan is fair

Review from Sales Dept

base salary is fair for my role

Review from Sales Dept

The Base, IC, On-Target Earnings

Review from Sales Dept

I enjoy being an owner, having vested options

Review from Sales Dept

The 401K portion of the compensation package is awesome!

Review from Sales Dept

The commission plan is fair, appealing, and inspires the correct behaviors. I've never been in an organization that has used this much wisdom and creativity to be in drive the results for which they're looking. I tip my hat to Gary Golden. Also, I'm VERY glad that Cherwell provides stock options!

Review from Sales Dept

The diversity of offerings in the compensation package offers great value for each employee.

Review from Operations Dept

I love that we have paid parental leave that is available to all new parents, both moms and dads.

Review from Operations Dept

Competitive compensation package vs. the standard market rate. No undercutting at all, most straight forward negotiation.

Review from Sales Dept

There are a number of things I appreciate about the compensation package. I would single out the 401k matching as the best part. Not all companies do that.

Review from Customer Support Dept

The complete package including health care and compensation is very fair.

Review from Engineering Dept

Unlimited PTO and work flexibility.

Review from Sales Dept

The flexibility in my work schedule to allow me to prioritize both my family and my career.

Review from Operations Dept

The option to work remote.

Review from Engineering Dept

Paid Time Off and a few other things

Review from Operations Dept

Unlimited PTO is great, but what I appreciate the most is the flexible work-from-home policy. This is invaluable to me as the parent of a young child.

Review from Engineering Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

compensation is not in line with competitors or market rates. Cherwell pays substantially less than the competition.

Review from Executive Dept

salary and benefits are not comparable with the market. I know I could earn more at other comparable companies. But the vision, people and culture play a part inthe overall happiness and love for the company.

Review from Sales Dept

The insurance benefits are more expensive than other places I've worked. The compensation feels low especially with the amount of pressure to grow the business.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Closer to the national average for position

Review from Admin Dept

I am paid significantly less than most of my team, despite being one of the top performers. Its completely demoralizing to know that I am valued significantly less than those doing far less work.

Review from Product Dept

Lower than average salary rate was presented at initial contract offer. While my tech experience wasn't as competitive as some of my colleagues, I surpassed several in leadership and management expertise with a varied background in these areas and this was not even a consideration.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Cherwell's base pay is lower than competitors. Equity is much lower.

Review from Sales Dept

The benefits made sense when we were a smaller company, but we have big company problems without the big company benefits. The pay is OK, but doesn't make up for the benefits. Specifically, the health and dental plans are expensive and still require a lot out of pocket.

Review from Product Dept

Pay according to the what others are paid for the same job in the same region.

Review from Sales Dept

Increased travel budget Additional compensation for Denver employees for parking

Review from Marketing Dept

Salary can vary, but we could set a midpoint of the range and make sure both my people and I are within 90% of our targeted range. We need to do some adjustments (they were called cost of living adjustments at my previous company) to offer a fair salary to the people who work here.

Review from Engineering Dept

Receiving fair merit increases based on true performance and real results would help employees feels their contributions matter.

Review from Marketing Dept

P r o m o t i o n

Review from Finance Dept

TAM not properly identified, quotas too high, too many salespeople, quotas too high, people not making money, difficult internal systems require massive manual input, poor work life balance.

Review from Sales Dept

My compensation needs to be increased to compensate for my skills and expertise, and also for the cost of living where I'm located. Cherwell underpays for my area.

Review from Engineering Dept

I haven't had a raise in 5 years to my base salary.

Review from Sales Dept

In the many years that I've been here, I never once hit 100% of my comp plan.

Review from Sales Dept

Again, pay lags behind comparable positions at other companies

Review from Engineering Dept

I was promoted to a QA Lead with promises that I would be compensated in the future. After 1 year of taking on the additional responsibilities I asked about the pay increase. I got the run around from my manager, from my director, and from HR. No merit increase was given. Unfair.

Review from Engineering Dept

There needs to be an adjustment across my department, but that most likely will not happen.
