Pros

Awesome product, well known in the market Good benefits State of the art office

Cons

Churn and burn environment / high turnover rate “Just a number” environment Poor management — listen to your team. Provide feedback and guidance when asked instead of just dismissing people Micromanagement - hyperfixated on dial and email metrics even if youre exceeding quota. Lack of diversity - mostly all white men in the colorado office with a few exceptions Theres a ton of green field in the US but youre assigned 80 accounts that youre restricted to. Accounts are dispersed unevenly and makes it hard to be as successful as you could be. Most accounts youre assigned have teams exclusively located overseas so you spend a ton of time outside of working hours taking calls and making dials or else its almost impossible to find success
