Pros

Easy interview, comradery, pingpong table.

Cons

This company is not the best place to start out your career in tech sales period. The pay is abysmal, the management is startlingly to that of fraternity/sorority leadership. Hitting quota is often not very attainable and when you look at it objectively, is not even worth the bonus. Which at most result in a monthly increase of $180 gross... I routinely heard one of the recruiters tell non seekers that people are making around $70k a year after bonuses which is absolutely a bald faced lie. I knew people who hit quota 12 times and made no where close to that. Now one of the five paths is to go internal and work for MB, which I thought would protect you from the incredibly rigid metrics. However, they make you sign a 2 YEAR contract and non compete. I also first hand witnessed managment fire an employee with absolutely no cause. Because it's run like a frat house there is no HR and as long as you're hitting quota you can do WHATEVER YOU WANT no matter how vial, unprofessional, or just unethical it is and trust me people do! Also that $5K "training fee" is complete nonsense and they make people pay it if they don't like then and the ones that they do, they let it slide and make you not tell anyone about it. Also if they find out that you're looking for other jobs they will try to intimidate you/or terminate you immediately. The culture there also promotes a lot of backstabbing and gossip so SDR's will inform on people who they think are not "loyal".

Pros

- Good Sales Training - Good Company Culture, Everyone wants to learn and help - Good Managers will be able to provide great coaching to help further grow your skills

Cons

- Your success is highly dependent on what client they give you. If they give you a hard client, do not expect to see those bonuses come in frequently. - Managers are also another luck of the draw. Started off with a great manager, who'd always be willing to help and coach. But then transitioned to another manager who was about my age, not very competent at coaching or advice since he had only been on an easy client for 6 months before being promoted, and would micromanage the team very hard. If you get a bad manager + a hard client, you will not have a good time at memoryBlue since they are already expecting you to work hard. - Pay and the bonuses are very low. Whether or not you'll see a raise is dependent on what client you get whether since it's based on hitting quota an X amount of times.
