Pros

Everyone is very friendly and helpful. I have understood what is expected of me since day one and how to fulfill those expectations. Great environment to work in. On-boarding process was streamlined and easy. I have had the opportunity to interact with employees up to C level and everyone has been nice, encouraging, and again, helpful.

Cons

Some confusion on correct processes or procedures (legacy Cbeyond vs Birch) but this is very minor in terms of overall organization.

Pros

$100K+ First Year. Promoted 4x in first year and 5 months for simply hitting my bare quota consistently. I earned (4) 10% Raises in one year. TONS of growth and opportunity. GREAT work/Life balance. Run your own schedule most of the day EVERYDAY

Cons

People who get hired here, become lazy, complain, get fired, then bad mouth everybody and the company but NEVER blame themselves for their lack of productivity because THIS JOB IS SOOO EASY if you SIMPLY LOVE TO MAKE ALOT OF MONEY!

Pros

The only Pros that I can think about is the quality of the remaining employees of Cbeyond that still remain working there expecting things to improve after the disastrous acquisition.

Cons

So many to enumerate. Not competitive pricing, project coordinators lack of professionalism and follow up with sales execs, have lost multiple deals because of no follow up with clients and the way they keep us in the dark as far as the status o our installations. I have accepted a positions at another company and I'm seeing lots of my former Cbeyond colleagues doing the same. We used to have close to 70 sales reps at one time and now as Birch we're down to less that a dozen. See the best people leaving month after month. It's a total disaster!!!
