Pros

Work life balance and my peers

Cons

Leadership. They laid off a ton of people recently and kept my Manager who simply asks for a forecast once a week and didn’t bring value on the sales side to the group. A major reason why the team underperformed. It starts with your Manager and the results speak for themselves. If almost your entire team misses quota, look at the Manager.

Pros

Work from home, unlimited PTO, good benefits

Cons

3 CEOs in 1 year, high-level strategy and direction changes quarterly - if not monthly, very political, HR is irrelevant and allows toxic management practices, almost entire company turned over in last few years, equity firm only focusing on most profitable products that shouldn't even be in market to make company look better for upcoming sale, everyone burnt out.

First, we appreciate your candor and want to acknowledge any frustrations. While we can’t speak to the specifics of your experience, we believe some sentences in your post require context. Mike Kohlsdorf, President of Francisco Partners – one of the largest technology focused private equity firms in the world – succeeded Bill Wagner as CEO in January of 2022. Then, in August 2022, Paddy Srinivasan was promoted from Chief Product and Technology Officer to CEO. Mike Kohlsdorf remains on the Board. We regularly update our blog with any relevant news and information. Statements around strategy and direction can be clarified in those publications, including public-facing objectives with products and services. Many tech companies emerging out of the pandemic experienced higher than normal turnover (dubbed the Great Resignation.) Still, plenty of GoGetters hold impressive tenures, over 330 new GoGetters between January and August 2022 were referrals, and over 40 GoGetters in 2022 were Boomerangs – employees who left and then came back to GoTo! A testament to our culture. Since we cannot speak to the specifics of your experience, we hope you were able to share some of your concerns in our recent engagement survey. We really do act on the feedback we receive. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and thoughts on your time at GoTo. We’re glad that you enjoyed the flexibility and benefits and thank you for highlighting these positives in your review.
