Pros

-It's a job. -Insurance is good. -People are great to work with

Cons

They're literally just hiring college kids with zero experience. Like, girl, where's the seasoned talent? The "career path" for BDR roles? It doesn't exist, babe. They basically tell you to go find a job somewhere else, unless you happen to be buddies with someone in management—then maybe you'll actually get somewhere. It's giving favoritism. The interview process has them absolutely gassing up how amazing it's going to be. They sell you on this fantasy that's nowhere close to reality. Here's my favorite part: they act like they have this whole polished system set up for their BDRs. You get hired thinking everything's figured out, and then—plot twist—they want you to create a plan because their "process" wasn't anything really.

Pros

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Cons

They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
