Avantages

Good salary and perks Great travel opportunities I had an amazingly talented SDR team and SDR manager

Inconvénients

Lack of work life balance is overly encouraged Constant changing of goalposts to make promotion and achievement incredibly difficult The same 3 people get held up as gold star examples with no encouragement given to other members of the teams. Too many mandatory company events that take up up to a week without targets getting adjusted. Pretty much no actual promotion potential, only 2 SDR promotions in the last two years. Never mind that pretty much the whole Emea SDR team just got fired after only just having introduced new hires in the last 4 months. Many of the people fired were well overachieving on quotas. Spammy, antiquated sales tactics. Quantity over quality. Senior leadership have no idea how sales work in Europe, data protection nightmare…customer data held on excel sheets, do not contact requests frequently encouraged to ignore.

Very intelligent people and an awesome rise at one point

Inconvénients

What a disgraceful ending to what could have been a career changing opportunity for many. You can point fingers in every direction but the product was garbage and the 2021 executive changes were ultimately what sank the company. Following the acquisition Lacework decided to return $0 to former employees who exercised their ISOs.. i.e. the team who built and scaled the company from $1m-$90m in revenue. All while paying the investors, c-suite, and current employees who helped tank the company a nice premium. The C-Suite as it stands today is the worst I've seen in my 25+ year career. Soulless, directionless, tone deaf leaders steering a zombie business in whatever direction the wind blows. SHV brand has been ruined in the process. Lead investor saying "I'd die before this company fails!" on an all hands call, then taking Lacework off of his LinkedIn profile, is all you need to know about the company/culture/product that is Lacework. Good luck trying to replicate the Snowflake growth model across your portfolio.
