- Small team with potential for impact - if you’re given the right tools and support. - Product is functional and technically sound. - Some team members were collaborative and well-meaning.

- Sudden and unclear termination: I was let go at my 90-day mark for “lack of effort” and “activity,” despite a completely positive 60-day review and no prior feedback indicating any concerns. There was no coaching, no performance plan - just a surprise termination. - Broken promises around ramp time: When I joined, I was told I would have 6–8 months to ramp. In reality, I was given just 6 actual working weeks before being let go (out of 90 days, two weeks were onboarding, two weeks were travel (company events), and two were a pre-approved vacation - leaving six actual weeks of selling - during which time, I closed a deal accomplishing more than one rep who started months before me). Unfortunately, that wasn’t acknowledged. Within 5–10 days after my termination, three large prospects I had been nurturing independently reached out ready to move forward - deals I would have been actively working had the company honored their commitment. - Unequal lead distribution: While some reps were consistently fed inbound leads or inherited accounts, I received just one inbound during my entire tenure. - Misclassification of outbound efforts: Some of my outbound leads were miscategorized as inbound to justify keeping me out of the round-robin. This limited my access to high-quality opportunities and further stacked the deck against me. - Post-termination handoff of my pipeline: The rep mentioned above, who hadn’t closed a deal during my time there, is now working leads I sourced and qualified. Their closest opportunity to date is one I generated. It’s frustrating to know the “lack of effort” they cited is now bearing fruit for someone else. - Activity theater over actual sales strategy: The environment values mass outreach over thoughtful, strategic engagement. I focused on quality messaging and was gaining traction, but that work was ignored in favor of flashier but less effective tactics (2-300+ “spray and pray” emails per week). - Weak leadership structure: My manager lacked both authority and clarity. The termination was delivered not by my manager but by the CFO - who was also functioning as HR. The process lacked transparency and professionalism. - Stagnant company outlook: CacheFly positions itself as a startup, but it's a 20+ year-old business in a saturated, commoditized space with no clear innovation roadmap.
