The experience teaches you what to avoid.

Micromanagement is off the charts. Transparency is treated like an ideal the company claims to value, but in practice, it is a goal they consistently miss. Growth is used as the sales hook, but like most sales hooks, there is a catch. The catch is that growth is not available to everyone. It is reserved for a select few who fall under the favouritism banner. If you are not part of that circle, do not expect real development, fair opportunity, or meaningful support. The company talks about progression, but the reality is selective advancement dressed up as culture.

Nice people to work with. Highly experienced sales leadership.

This company appears to have been built primarily to serve the investor’s interests, with the overall strategy dictated almost entirely by a single investor. The investor is based in South Africa, while approximately 80% of the company operates out of Israel, which creates a structural disconnect. As a very early-stage startup (around one year old), the company is still in the process of establishing product-market fit. However, despite limited familiarity with the market and the product, the investor remains heavily involved in defining the go-to-market strategy and determining where and how to build the sales organization. This misalignment has had a direct impact on sales performance, with expectations to scale execution before the necessary foundations are in place. These challenges were identified early on at the sales leadership level. However, with strategic decisions centralized at the investor level and limited autonomy to influence direction, there was little ability to course-correct.
