Bottom Line
Apollo.io
Choose Apollo.io if you want best-in-class sales intelligence with competitive comp — but leadership can be hands-on.
Wayve
One of Europe's top deep-tech companies with excellent Glassdoor ratings (4.4) and a cutting-edge AV research environment — but expect an intense pace and most roles are London-based.
