Pros

- Work life balance and overall culture is great - Product offerings are great, Ping truly is the industry leader in IAM - Base comp for AE's is really good and OTE is good as well, top performers on my greater team made anywhere from $500-700k this last year

Cons

- Too many AE's, not enough accounts to go around, plain and simple. - Because of the above, maybe 15% of reps are hitting quota. Quota is also absurdly high, the only reps hitting are senior reps who have been at Ping forever and get tossed the best accounts - New senior leadership has come in from other larger orgs and they are a lot more intense and breathing down AE managers' necks

Pros

Before new CS leadership came in it was a utopia. I applaud them for hiring an SVP and minion with an obvious learning disability. That is both stunning and brave.

Cons

You will be laid off for no reason. In an attempt to cook the books, they'll juice the numbers by having big layoffs. Even if you get some real hardware at the Ping Oscars you'll still be a target. I was told week after week that all of our jobs were safe until that one tuesday when they weren't. We were at least given a phony opportunity to interview for jobs we already had. It was clear from the get go that we never had an honest chance, so that we were all dancing like little monkeys. I wouldn't recommend working there to anyone. Anyone still there I'd say it's time look for something else.
