Pros
Perhaps if you're not in sales?
Kontras
BlueJeans had it all at one time. Best product in the market, best sales team, great culture, worthy and competent management. Unfortunately a decision was made to ignore the competition and let the product stagnate for a period of about 18 months. Meanwhile accounts were lost and service interruptions became more common while the competition continued to innovate and expand rapidly. About this time a new team of executive leadership was brought in from another industry, instead of addressing the key issues around platform, pricing and service the new CRO insisted the sales team just wasn't good enough, shouting and bullying ensued and the mass exodus of top performers began. The culture turned toxic and work-life balance was discarded with any sense that it would ever be fun to work here again. Really a shame...
