Pros

fun environment and great coworkers

Cons

terrible management, no transparency, no mentoring/coaching and training is terrible. The onboarding process is ridiculous and teaches you some of the worst sales habits that cause the high turnover this company sees; not to mention a consistently changing commission structure that gets worse by the quarter

Learned a great deal here. My first big guy job and the responsibilities kept me focused and motivated. I grew a lot as a person at Groupon as well

Cons

Not many cons. People are really cool.

Disconnected leadership makes working here extremely frustrating. Changes are made that don’t directly help anything.
