Pros

Cutting-edge industry leader Very good benefit package Career growth potential Fun culture Mostly laid back managers

Cons

In this role, you will be live on the phone with customers on your seventh day. You will not have a full grasp of the basic functions of the CRM ordering system. This goes over and above your being a novice at the product line, which includes more than 60 offerings. Unless you are a skilled actor, or very versed in internet tech at the outset ( this is not a requirement to be hired, by the way), customers will sense that you are new and unsure. This can be a harrowing experience for the customer and especially for you, until you learn. Of course, during this time you will still be expected to sell product and have the credibility of an internet expert (at least in the perception of the customer).

Pros

Great benefits, cool people (not including leadership)

Cons

- You'll be worked like a slave, told when you can take your breaks and lunches. - Boy's Club. If you're in it, you can get away with lying to customers, breaking company policy, and basically whatever you want. If you're not part of it, watch your back, you'll be hyper-scrutinized for every action you take. - Commissions are capped, so top performers are limited. - This is not a true sales job, you are taking inbound customer service calls and will be expected to do technical support and deal with escalated inbound customers. - Much of the job has been outsourced to a Business Partner Organization (BPO) in the Philippines. Because they aren't true GoDaddy employees, they are allowed to operate like the wild wild west. Lying to customers, selling them duplicate products, deleting things from their accounts and reselling them the same product. Basically a complete legal nightmare... but you aren't allowed to complain about it and you are expected to fix all the problems they create.
