Growth rate outpaces hiring, and sometimes can result in teams without direct supervisors, or employees with too large a book of business for periods of time.
Travel may be a lot more than anticipated depending on the customer or role.
Customers will schedule meetings at the last minute, often without checking your availability, which may be a challenge for work-life balance.
Some HR practices, such as for internal transfer promotions, feel like carryovers from a small startup versus what would be expected from an organization with this many employees today.

Many steps were involved in the process, and I found it hard to commit the time needed, so I opted out part way through. They really care about the kind of people they want in the company, hence the process being so thorough. 1. HR Screen 2. HM Inte

The interview process included: * Recruiter screening * Hiring manager interview * Technical assessment * Panel interview with a presentation It was a straightforward process but definitely difficult. The recruiter was very helpful throughout.

I first talked to a recruiter who assessed my skills and history. Then, I met with the hiring manager, followed by the sales director. I stopped the process there as I didn't like the sales director's smug attitude.
