Pros
Amazing office, even better people. The office culture was made by events that involved everyone, allowing people to mingle with others that they didn’t see on a day-to-day basis. My closest friends in San Diego are people that I met at Classy. I was miserable working there my last few months, but the people I had the pleasure of seeing everyday kept me going.
Cons
The way sales reps were compensated was joke, promotions were given without salary increases.... Reps had an unreal workload, unrealistic quotas, and enough stress to make you reconsider a career in sales. At one point managements master plan was to raise product pricing, increase quotas, and decrease payouts. Then they have the nerve to cut people who are hitting quota. A sales development rep was once told by their manager that they could be a six figure earner. However, their base salary combined with them tripling their quota every month would still leave them significantly short. Managers only listen in on calls instead of rolling up their sleeves and helping the team. Seriously though, if you’re going to take the time to “listen in” why not help? You win, your rep wins, your team wins, seems pretty simple to me (insert shrug emoji).
