Pros

Going to lunch with your peers on Friday. When we were able to work from home.

Cons

Man, where do I start. The only way you will survive and not want to throw yourself into oncoming traffic is dependent on the client you get. I knew some in my office that had 4-5 during their tenure, and some of them weren't even "high-tech" clients. You are praised for bookings and not fully acknowledged when you are dealt with a tougher client. Some SDR's would send out a 200 email drip and wake up to 4 meetings, while other SDR's who are just as talented, if not more, can go weeks without booking on a difficult client that offers little support or structure. The Manager for your team is making 2x the bonus structure compared to you if your client stays. They will manipulate, coerce, and ultimately make your life a living h-e-double hockey sticks in order to keep clients on. This job seriously took a toll on my physical and mental health. Sunday nights were the absolute worst because you realized you had to go back to work here on Monday morning. Also, hard to get real feedback and training from Managers who never even hit quota, and are writing scripts for you around industries they aren't even familiar with. They will lie in the recruitment phone call, and you will end up realizing in a months time, what you ultimately got yourself into.

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.
