Pluspunten

Good salary and RSU Good benefits in line with an American company 90% of the people you work with are very nice and passionate and they always help you during some hard situations

Minpunten

Micromanagement on a level I've never imagined before, everything has to be approved by senior engineers who are already stressed by the huge workload. As soon as you make few small mistakes, you will go in PIP, and from that moment on it will start the nightmare until you are completely brainwashed or you leave the company. Very stressful environment where mistakes are not allowed and management tend to make a big deal out of very little and stupid mistakes. Extra hours are expected on a normal basis.

Employee stock purchase program is great.

Minpunten

This was one of the most toxic sales cultures I’ve experienced. Management creates an environment where you never know where you stand, regardless of your performance. Expectations constantly shift, feedback is inconsistent, and trust is virtually nonexistent. QBRs are particularly unprofessional. Rather than serving as coaching sessions, they often feel like coordinated attempts to find fault. Managers openly collaborate beforehand and during QBRs (yes, we see you slacking each other) to identify issues and pressure reps, creating a culture of fear instead of development. Account ownership is also a major concern. Accounts and opportunities can be taken away without warning, even when a rep is performing well and has invested significant time building relationships. This makes it difficult to feel motivated or confident in your long-term success. The organization measures and critiques nearly every activity, resulting in extreme micromanagement. Reps are treated as if they cannot be trusted to do their jobs, and leadership seems far more focused on monitoring and criticism than enabling success. In my experience, the company tends to hire less experienced salespeople who may be more willing to accept this environment. Strong, seasoned reps who value autonomy, transparency, and professional respect are unlikely to thrive here. If you’re looking for a culture built on trust, coaching, and empowerment, this is probably not the place.
