Matt, Senior BDR - East Coast USA. Joined September 2021
- “There is a great culture of positivity and a team mentality. The weekly sync up calls with everyone are nice to learn what is going on outside of my day to day. It’s easy-to-get tunnel vision focusing on generating leads for the clients so it’s nice to take a step back and see the bigger picture. I think it helps make everyone feel part of something bigger than just themselves.”_
