      Pros

      A really collaborative team overall, each country/region is very tight-knit

      Cons

      Partnerships feels like an add-on to the business, rather than an integrated function of the GTM team.

      Hi there, thanks for taking the time to leave a review. It's great to hear that you’re enjoying a good work life balance and the people you work with. With regards to compensation, we have recently rolled out a more structured compensation framework with a view to ensure we remain competitive in the market. You’ve also raised layoffs - these are not something we do regularly and when they have occurred, there is much consideration given and it is to enable us to ensure we can continue to invest in growth in our product and in our customer experience. Thanks again for the positive impact you’re making!
