Pros

It is interesting to read through these reviews. It would appear that not all the reviewers are portraying a true booker experience. Working at Booker for years now, I can attribute much of my growth as a professional to the tutelage and guidance of company leaders and my peers here at Booker. We collaborate, we work together, and frankly we get stuff done. The passion for the Health, Wellness, and Beauty industry is remarkable and I can say that I have honestly never spoken to a client who I did not believe I could help become even more successful. The Scottsdale office is kind-of a leadership power house which I appreciate and is the growth hub for the company. You have good VP's from many different departments close by and always willing to discuss a project, idea, or innovation you may have. Tends to be a younger culture as a whole, that likes to have fun but also respects that people have families and lives, always trying to include everyone from all different walks in life. Pretty relaxed office environement, with your typical games (ping pong, ladder ball, basketball,) music, snacks etc... all those little extras that make waking up at 5:30 to beat the traffic worth it. They treat me well, respect my opinion, pay well for the Phoenix area, and offer great benefits so I have no complaints on all those fronts.

Cons

-No 401k match -Sometimes we get a little caught up in a goal or project and lose sight of the BIG picture of the value we provide for our clients. -Things move quickly here, which isn't for everyone. If you are expecting someone to lay out a 10 year business track plan for you, probably not the best. However if you are a trailblazer you will open more opportunities at Booker then you can probably imagine.

Pros

I really enjoyed working for Booker they have awesome people, Culture! What I enjoyed best about the role at Booker is that I really enjoy mentoring entrepreneurs and helping them create a successful strategy to manage their business that way they can focus on what they do best. This company is transparent and cares so much for their Customers and is committed to your success.

Cons

no on-site Gym, the pay is fair but I think is underpaid based on other employers in the tech industry.

Pros

- Great benefits - My overall comp has increased year over year - Time off is awesome, and you're not frowned upon when you take it - Career growth is something that actually happens - Fast-paced environment - Ping Pong and Kegs are always a plus - Great culture - Talented professionals - Collaborative environment across different segments - Brand recognition - Flexibility and autonomy given to consult with your clients - Networking opportunities here are endless NYC Management View: MBWA) / Democratic Management Approach. Here is why…. Mike H is an invaluable asset to our team. He has a Democratic / Management by Walking Around (MBWA) approach. He aims to involve all member’s of the team in the decision making process. He is very familiar with the SMB sales process and sales cycle which in the end helps me to land more deals. I have witnessed first-hand many sales reps at Booker develop and hone their skills within a short period of time under Mikes direction. Mike engages with the team and encourages a competitive and healthy rivalry while helping us to embrace corporate and team culture. This helps to drive real metrics and results. This level of management is characteristic I have grown to truly appreciate Mike for. He also engages with other departments, embraces change and lends advice to those in need.

Cons

- Here at Booker it's easy to become attached to your work, leads & accounts, and it often trickles over into your personal life after hours, or on weekends. - Quota isn't necessarily the easiest to hit. But I guess if it were easy I suppose they would let anyone in.
