What are some of the best things about your team?

Everyone is kind, respectful, and helpful.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Flexible time off is actually flexible time off with the company encouraging employees to enjoy time away from work.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Because sales territories are so frequently changed, customers do not build a relationship with sales teams which prevents them from being loyal & being apt to buy more. Equally distribute actual customers amongst the territories, make quotas reasonable, and keep account assignments stable.

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

I have a fair salary, but territories are poorly structured. More than half of Growth accounts do not actually have contracts with the company & should be acquisition accounts. Reps are paid less on Acquisition than Growth despite Acquisition being harder deals to close. This makes OTE unrealistic.

What did you like most about the interview process?

I knew quickly that they wanted to hire me, and they didn't have a lengthy interview process once they knew they wanted to hire me. The offer took too long, but the interview process wasn't extensive unlike many others I interviewed with who I declined to move forward with for that reason.
