My experience has been a roller coaster; while there have been some good moments, overall I have felt under valued and under appreciated for the impact I've had. I am actively looking and would not recommend Smartsheet unless significant changes are made.
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
If I could time travel, I never would have accepted this role. Now that I'm here, I view this job as a job - there's no meaningful career path or growth but it pays the bills until I can find something else to do with my skillset.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Our product roadmap, the way leaders address their teams (with more empathy and support), the quality of communication from executive leadership.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
We have many employees who are mediocre at best but they are good at staying visible. We really need to upskill our workforce and hold under performing employees accountable.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Employees at Smartsheet are rewarded with promotions and compensation based on tenure or nepotism; not merit or impact. This has created a homogenous environment that thrives on toxicity and subpar skill.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
There is a rampant lack of accountability, and those who put forth the most work are overlooked in favor of those who are more popular. We also have a relatively homogenous workforce which places those of us in minority groups at a significant disadvantage.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Reiterating a previous response, the environment has become toxic and egos are rewarded. The 20% of us who do 80% of the work are overlooked and our contributions are downplayed because we are often not the loudest voices in the room. Favoritism and time in seat are valued more than impact.
