Pros

The best thing about this organization is its commitment to provide truly committed employees with great benefits and their understanding of a need for a positive work-life balance. It is increasingly difficult in a corporate world to truly try to re-invest in employee happiness and while everything they try does not always bear fruit, the effort and dedication has always been there. That is a rare thing in this world. As with all businesses, the bottom line is the most important result but this is a place that genuinely tries to balance that fact with the needs of its employees.

Cons

This has been a very rapidly growing organization for a number of years and as in any growing business, the bigger it gets, the more corporate the environment becomes. While I truly believe the organizational management does their best to keep this a people oriented organization, pressures from investors and a board that is increasingly distant from the day to day operations of the businesses have put pressure on the organization to lean towards emphasizing profits over people on a day to day basis. My observation of the organization over the last year leads me to believe that the goal in the next 1-2 years is to sell to a larger entity so decisions in management are being made that will hopefully maximize short term revenue and profit margins at the expense of all the great people who have called CLEARLINK home for a long time and morale has suffered as a result. The funny thing is that this deteriorating culture has knocked this business down to a 9.7 from a 9.9 on a "great places to work" scale. For over 5 years this has been my home and my family. I dont know if there is a better way to share my appreciation for what CLEARLINK has meant to me as a person and employee that to leave and honest and real review for others to see. If you are looking to work here, its an organization of real people with the best of intentions who are trying to do their best in a complicated world and business environment. I will forever be grateful for the 5 years I was able to be a part of the CLEARLINK family

Pros

Friendly environment, aesthetically pleasing to the eye (this isn't some office that hasn't been updated since 1982), lots of initiatives and benefits if you do your job well, including but not limited to: a great commission structure, physical items like gift cards, TVs, gaming systems, cameras, and much more. Vacations and "work related day activities" like charity events, and even potentially a round of golf! The freedom to basically look the way you want (there's still standards, look nice and work appropriate obviously). Tons of individuals work here with cool hair, piercings, tattoos; creativity thrives here. The opportunity for internal growth is amazing! Most of the people I work with started as sales reps and have moved into other great departments where they have been trained to succeed.

Cons

The sales process is hard to learn if you're not familiar with it, but once you've got it down you'll do great. Dont get discouraged! Non flexible weekly hours and schedules. You do get to modify your schedule every few months but it's geared towards the most successful sellers getting priority scheduling, which makes sense and promotes working hard for what you want, but it leaves little help for the people who are struggling and could encourage a high turnover with underperformers.
