Good company, good culture

Pros

With warm leads, this is a sales person's dream! There aren't any cold calls and you get typically people that truly want to hear from you. At times it's hard to get people off the phone. And you're selling a product that you can believe in. The company culture is great and its a true work hard, play hard atmosphere. They had cool sales contests giving away TV's, iPads, computers, etc. There is great comradary within the sales department and the willingness to openly share best practices. The team managers are knowledgeable and care about you as an individual. As a growing company Constant Contact was once a great company to work for, then it became a little too corporate, but with a few tweaks it can become great again.

Cons

Upper management and operations aren't knowledgeable in how to set realistic, motivating goals. There were some months that the targets were viewed as unreachable which isn't motivating at all. Generally they have good intentions of setting accurate targets but if they get it wrong, they need to own up, and change them quickly. While call productivity is important, they need to concentrate a tad less on call metrics and more on acquisition.

Pros

The people and the customers. Hands down. They hire smart people that you learn from, that can challenge you and that you'd like to have a beer with (or soda). Executive leadership works hard to keep the culture a work hard play hard environment.

Cons

None really. They had some growing pains for a while, but knew it and focused on working them, they listen to employees and work to find a solution.

Pros

The people who work here are great as long as they are not senior mgt. Everyone pitches in and helps each other Benefits are good

Cons

Sr. Mgt. needs to stay more in touch with what is really going on and speak to the workers who are not managers and get some honest feedback and not what they want to hear from their sr. managers
