Pros

The other reps I worked with were great.

Cons

So many things to say here... If you are looking for a legit funnel selling role, this is not it. It's pseudo selling. You are reading from a script, you don't prospect on your own, and you are selling a border line scam. Closest thing is telemarketing. Just shady tactics throughout the entire company and they try to gloss over it with bad spiffs and team happy hours. If you want to actually get into strategic sales, you can find an BDR/SDR role that pays more and will actually help you learn how to sell. I could go on and on about my experience at this company, but it already has been enough of a time suck. Stay away!

Pros

The culture is generally positive, and leadership is accessible. Management is willing to meet with employees and listen to concerns. There are talented people throughout the organization, and the work can be rewarding if you enjoy sales and helping businesses grow.

Cons

The biggest challenge is the compensation structure. The company promotes uncapped commissions, but many employees feel earnings are effectively controlled through continually increasing quotas and changing performance targets. Revenue and nominal goals are adjusted so frequently that it can feel like the finish line is always moving. What's particularly frustrating is that the majority of the sales team often struggles to reach 100% of quota, yet goals continue to rise. This creates the perception that compensation expense is being managed through quota increases rather than by allowing top performers to fully benefit from the revenue they generate. Over time, this can discourage high achievers. Employees who consistently perform well are often expected to deliver significantly more results each year just to maintain the same level of compensation. When exceptional performance is met with ever-increasing targets instead of proportionally increasing rewards, motivation suffers.
