Review from Operations Dept

Review from Operations Dept

Opportunity to overdeliver on variable compensation is there for 2025.

Review from Sales Dept

Health Benefits being paid for.

Review from Sales Dept

I think the best part is that my salary fairly reflects what I do on a daily basis, along with a bonus that is more than satisfactory. However, the annual salary increases could be improved slightly to better match the level of responsibility that some teams have.

Review from Finance Dept

A competitive commission structure in sales motivates and improves my performance. It certainly would be a main variable in retention..

Review from Sales Dept

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

Paid in alignment to the industry standard for my role.

Review from Sales Dept

Comp is below market, we've lost the variable of RSU's, we've little opportunity to either make the company a better place and/or get paid when we do--it has become a 'do your job, collect your pay' culture

Review from Sales Dept

There has been no signs of company leadership addressing the tangible decrease in the value proposition of being a Smartsheet employee from being public to private (ESPP, RSU, etc). On top of that many of hurdles employees have faced lately in regards to USM were unnecessary due to poor planning.

Review from Sales Dept

We paused millions of dollars worth of scheduled true ups and provided no quota relief. This will be the worst W-2 filed for most sales/cs employees.

Review from Sales Dept

I (female) make less than the men on my team despite having more experience, time in seat, and driving better results.

Review from Sales Dept

RSUs were taken away and we have not received adjustments though Leadership said we would have something prior to the PE sale. Compensation is not fair across genders and races. Example: I have many examples of white male colleagues with less relevant experience making more than females and POCs

Review from Operations Dept

The company has removed many benefits (RSU and Employee Purchase Program) reduced medical coverage resulting in significant impact to the overall compensation. In addition the existing benefits like flexible time off are being questioned if taking more than 2-3 weeks per year

Review from IT Dept

Variable comp targets need to be attainable. We are setup for failure with the new model and structure. No way to control what we've inherited.

Review from Customer Success Dept

We can get more benefits that provide working with smartsheet

Review from Operations Dept

We are no longer paying competitive salaries giving the level of work we are producing. Especially now that stock options are no longer offered with no talk of any replacement incentive.

Review from Sales Dept

My compensation seems fair with my company stock but once that runs out, my compensation would not be at market. I would feel better if my stock compensation was made up for with my salary.

Review from Operations Dept

Increases in base pay with promotions is too low. Without stock compensation, a substantial portion of my total compensation is gone. There's been no update about what is going to replace RSU's from the leadership team since the acquisition, which is very disappointing.

Review from Product Dept

Being paid on the deals I sell. In my experience, I do not believe the management team actually cares if the correct person is paid for a deal that is closed.

Review from Sales Dept

Comp is below market average. No quota adjustment for true up pause - shocking.

Review from Sales Dept

My compensation for my title would be much much higher at other companies. Stock benefits no longer exist once old grants are gone and that makes it worse

Review from Sales Dept

Having a quota reduction due to the inability to sell our product within the expected windows.

Review from Sales Dept

Employees at Smartsheet are not paid equitably or fairly, particularly those who were previously part of acquisitions. They are also typically underpaid for the industry, which is why so many people are leaving. Comparing salaries with my team has been demoralizing and eye opening.

Review from Admin Dept

I feel as though I am an underpaid employee based on other similar roles in this company and even other companies. I have been an overachiever year over year with minimal increases to compensation.

Review from Sales Dept

Took away our stock program and suddenly undervalued my . In addition, Instead of having it vest into stock, now paid out in cash at a high tax rate. Added premium health expense. Raises are not sufficient to meet inflation. Ask us to give you goals. How will you work better for us?

Review from Admin Dept

Better base pay thats comparable to the market, clearer and easier to understand pay structure, better system that Captivate IQ for inquiries, clearer structure for raises, additional perks
