Pros

- This job is supposed to be tough. They’re weeding out who can actually handle sales! - All my SDR managers have been very nice and willing and wanting to help but also being hands off - Good mix of fresh out of college and people in a career change - 130 dials a day seems like a lot but the dialing software is awesome, fast and efficient so 130 is definitely attainable - The product is actually something I believe in and thinks it’s really useful - Love the culture here on the sales floor. Dress casual and has that start up feel - Free lunch everyday!

Cons

- All the positive reviews were from 2021 or 2022 or the post COVID golden era, aka the economy was thriving and people were spending money - Fast forward to today and some verticals are getting hit HARD cause of inflation and the overall economy - Favortism is unfortunately real here. Not hard to find someone who knows someone in a mid/upper management role - I know they are a startup but they are very disorganized in a lot of areas. A definite lack of consistency throughout their process across managers/verticals - Upper management is basically non existent and definitely feel like your just a number - The company quota changes every month but yours as an individual stays the same. Make that make sense. They’ll say the company goal is 15% less this month but all your dials, demos, and sales quotas stay the same. - I’m worried that quotas won’t change even when verticals get completely exhausted or as the economy continues towards a recession. Numbers are only gonna get harder to hit - They also cap commission. It’s definitely hard to hit and they initially said it’s only been done a very few times but since then I have seen multiple people hit the cap

Hey there! Since you're a current employee, I'd love for you to reach out to me (Jes) so we can talk further about any concerns you have. You mentioned the tougher economy. As you've probably heard in our company meetings, the past 12 months have been better than ever for us as a business. The SDR team as a whole is at 115% of quota this year and there is no vertical below 95%. Again, my door is open and I'd love to chat and hear more about the Cons you mentioned.

Pros

Working at Levitate you'll quickly realized that it isn't just about the work. The culture and crew at Levitate prioritize play about as much as work. The team at Levitate does an amazing job celebrating the individuals achievements to the extent that you feel like you're actually involved with the success of the company. In short I consider my time working at Levitate to be the best working experience of my life. And along the way I feel like I made some of the best connections and progress in the field which undoubtably has given me the experience to excel wherever else I go in life.

Cons

Just know that you are going to be working for a start up. with that comes high highs and low lows. it can be a lot of work especially on the closing side to keep the company competitive and the customers happy.

Pros

Good place to cut your teeth in B2B tech Income can be lucrative if you develop a solid process

Cons

Churn rate is decently high, but I’d say standard for entry level tech.
