Pros

nice managers and varied work

Cons

disastrous leadership since the new CEO took over. disastrous new system implementations which result in more time worked, not less - and as an insult, this year we won't get the week between Xmas and New years off disastrous, delayed merit cycle that was extremely poor despite being delayed. don't delay something unless it's going to be good useless, damaging and toxic HR departement who completely hamstring managers from being able to support their employees

Terrible company - avoid

Pros

Pay was good when I worked there - no idea how it is now.

Cons

They will lay you off if they miss their revenue numbers no matter how many years of service you have put in or how valuable you are to the teams you work with. They won't even consult with those you work with, they will just dump you like yesterdays trash without giving anyone a chance to discuss how this will impact product development projects or customer service.

Pros

-Pay was fairly competitive -Fine work/life balance for my role -I liked the people on my direct team

Cons

This experience was so disappointing - I was a part of one of their many acquisitions and was hopeful for being integrated into the Medallia ecosystem. The red flags started pretty early on, when I was given a few intranet articles to read and learn about Medallia, and then thrown in with clients shortly after. There was virtually no onboarding, and as someone who is expected to be an expert resource for clients, this was highly concerning. This company doesn't value client success in any capacity and tries to turn every role into an assistant to the sales org. They don't care at all about client happiness or the client experience - It's all about net new $, which is so strange, since clients are churning at an alarming rate. Sometimes it felt like the twilight zone because leaders didn't pay attention to churn at ALL. I've never been a part of an org like this. Working with other teams was incredibly painful - It felt like so many colleagues were robots and didn't care at all about getting to know the people they worked alongside. There were zero events in my almost 2 years there to get to know colleagues outside of business meetings. It was really demorsalizing and led to quicker burnout. Whenever I managed to meet someone that actually asked me a question about myself, I would keep in contact to try and stay sane. There is no mission, it felt like we were working towards nothing besides hitting $X in revenue, which was not motivating to anyone besides the chosen ones who were financially compensated on that goal. The only reason I gave Medallia 2-stars is because I felt I was fairly compensated in terms of base + commission, despite being given no equity once Thoma Bravo acquired us, which felt like a slap in the face.
