Pros

Decent starting point for a career in tech sales as you run the whole sales cycle from start to finish. Another positive is the free gym and snacks/beverages.

Cons

My time on the ADR team at Arrow has been overshadowed by issues of inconsistent Mid-Market account distribution, leading to demoralizing favoritism. Despite C-level praise, raises remain elusive, forcing many to juggle two jobs. The absence of a hybrid schedule for ADRs, unlike C-levels, adds financial strain due to gas prices. With low base pay and unequal commission opportunities, transparent policies and proactive leadership action are essential for a fair and collaborative work environment. 1. Favoritism: Discrepancies in account distribution lead to some enjoying lucrative opportunities while others struggle without making commissions. 2. Selective Accountability: Varying standards for call metrics create a sense of inequality among team members. 3. OTE Discrepancy: The disparity between promised and actual earnings is a widespread concern. 4. Resistance to Feedback: Efforts to provide constructive feedback are met with resistance. Addressing these issues, particularly favoritism, and implementing transparent policies are crucial steps towards creating a more equitable and supportive work environment.

Schedule flexibility benefits Time off

Cons

Not the best role if you're motivated to sale as commission is a large chunk of your pay
