Pros

Uncapped pay, complete freedom of day-day activities, lots of sales resources, and your leaders were most likely a sales rep to start so they know the role.

Cons

3 week training program where they try their best but basically just feed you way too much info and see what sticks. The product just dosent work, the people on the backend don’t care and are impossible to fix websites and accounts and you will put so much time into securing an account just for the back-end to mess it up and make them cancel. There is a lot of cancelations and the product itself has a diluted market where it feels extremely high pressure sales and you feel like a telemarketer. You could make a lot of money and have a ton of free time in this role but they have a lot of work That is needed to be done on the back end and with the product itself. If you have the hunter mindset and onto care about money and not the product this might be a good job, if you like to see your product affect people positively and feel like a positive impact on a business you won’t see that as much as you might be told/think.

Thanks for sharing your experience. We agree that you get out of the role what your put in! Our uncapped commissions and autonomy in our Premise roles offer a great work life balance. We truly believe in promoting from within, if you look at our executive team many of them started in entry level roles and their love of HIbu and passion kept them here! :)

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.
