Pros

2019 Christmas party was impressive. Snacks, pre-covid. Some cool people.

Cons

Absorb made unnecessary lay offs that crippled teams across the org, cut employee salaries/hours/bonuses, froze wages and lowered benefits while crying the Covid card all year as their excuse. On their website they broadcasted lies to customers that they were not impacted by Covid, while expecting employees to deal with increased workload with lower pay/workforce. Despite this, promotions were granted to higher ups, and executives brag about breaking sales records and being an entire quarter ahead of target since Covid made the industry boom. Nepotism is RIDICULOUS in this company. They formed an inclusion committee that required an application, and the obvious favourites made the cut. The inclusion committee doesn't even have proper representation across different demographics, so don't bother asking about diversity across Management. Senior Management preaches transparency and an open door policy, but will punish those who use it (Good talent was laid off at the start of Covid, and I would bet money they were the few willing to speak out). Makes promises to clients that they don't have the resources to maintain, yet expect the org to somehow deliver. On the flip side, will constantly makes promises to employees they won't keep, and provides poor lies that further insults them by thinking they can't see through the dishonesty.

Pros

I’ve been working as an SDR at Absorb LMS for about three months now, and my experience has been overwhelmingly positive. Coming into my first role in tech sales, I wasn’t sure what to expect, especially after hearing how challenging and sometimes discouraging others’ first experiences can be, but this has been the complete opposite. I’ve been able to ramp up much faster than I anticipated, and a huge part of that comes down to the support system here. The managers and my colleagues are incredibly approachable and genuinely invested in helping each other succeed. It’s a very comfortable environment where asking for help or guidance is encouraged, not judged, and that’s allowed me to grow and improve at a much faster pace. In just a short time, I’ve already seen strong personal progress, and it’s equally motivating to see others on my team achieving success as well. That shared momentum creates a really energizing atmosphere where everyone is pushing to get better and celebrating each other’s wins along the way. One thing that really stands out is how much the company values performance and recognizes achievements. Wins, big or small, are acknowledged and celebrated in a way that keeps you motivated and striving to maintain that level of success. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction into tech sales. This role has not only been a great learning experience but also a very encouraging one. It’s given me confidence in my ability to grow within this field, and I’m excited to continue developing my skills and eventually work toward becoming an AE.
