Pros

A lot of freedom. Commission is good as long as you're able to stay in the top tier of the commission structure.

Cons

Company doesn't seem to have actual procedures in place. Felt like management just decided how things go on a whim. Pay out higher commissions for specific businesses they deem are better and more established when at least 50% or more were to verticals we weren't supposed to target or were out of business. Product being sold could be done for much cheaper for same if not better result. It is a cookie cutter template product being sold as a boutique product. Management would regularly encourage reps to lie to prospects to get sale. Clients are only in 6 month contract but if they cancel before 12 months the rep gets a clawback and it affects their retention.

Pros

autonomy, product is seemingly good

Cons

Overall a terrible sales org, commission structure is nonsense and very low percent of reps are on the high tier, including reps that are top performers being on the mid or low tier commission. You are responsible for prospecting, closing, and account management so job gets harder the longer you are there. Force you into long meetings so the VP can show everyone Christopher Voss masterclass videos that are irrelevant. Sales contests where the reward is literally 5 dollars. Training is completely disconnected from how the job actually is, even down to the tech stack they teach you. Sales planning does nothing and does not provide any new leads or any sales tools that work. They do not even have a list of discovery questions to provide you. No one uses any of their provided tech stack you just have to figure out your own processes with no support. Very low base salary which they will lower if you get put on PIP. Extremely unstructured PIP program with no concrete numbers or explanation for how to get off of PIP. Extreme favoritism at the managerial level.
