Pluspunten

-High-performing, driven team that sets a strong standard—great place to learn and be challenged. -Supportive and collaborative peers who are both talented and enjoyable to work with. -Strong product with a clear value proposition and solid market fit—feels good to work on something impactful. -Fast-paced environment with lots of learning opportunities. You will know more than when you walked in the door.

Minpunten

-The company has shifted over time and now operates in a culture of fear and blame, particularly from senior leadership. -What was once a collaborative environment has become increasingly focused on cost-cutting and micromanagement. -Leadership—especially from the COO to senior customer success leaders—seems more invested in identifying who to exit next than in developing or retaining strong performers. -Earning potential is routinely chipped away through comp plan changes and shifting expectations, often without clear justification. -Transparency and trust have declined significantly, and psychological safety is lacking. -Unfortunately, this no longer feels like the company I was excited to join years ago.
