Vantaggi
Remote, no other pros that I can think off
Svantaggi
Very high employee turnover. Our team consists of 11 employees, and within just 6 months, 9 of them have either left, burned out, or been let go. I’ve worked in several tech companies, but I’ve never seen anything like this before. Even a senior Account Executive left the team. People are leaving because or they get burned out or fired. One of the main challenges is the lack of proper sales tools. Unlike most tech companies, there is no standard Outreach tool in place. Instead, the company has developed its own internal version, which is not integrated with Salesforce. As a result, all emails have to be sent manually. In other companies, you can simply take a Salesforce report, upload it into Outreach, and enroll hundreds of contacts into automated sequences. Here, that is not possible. The internally developed tool only offers a very limited set of features—roughly 5% of what standard tools provide. There is no option to send automated emails or build customized cadences. Consequently, all Account Executives are forced to send emails manually, which over time leads to inefficiency and burnout. Additionally, while tools like ZoomInfo are available, we are not allowed to use them to import new leads or contact data, which further limits our ability to prospect effectively. Zoominfo is a very good tool to filter contacts or companies, but we are not allowed to use it. Conclusing because of the lack of tools, you will be prospecting 10 hours a week while in other tech companies you can prospect in 1 hour, as consquence people get demotived and burned-out. I don’t want to see more of my colleagues get burned out or fired.
