Pros

All else aside, MB guided me toward developing my abilities as a tech salesman. I say guided because, aside from the initial 1-week training (which MB charges, yes, that's right - charges you about $2000 for), I mostly learned from my co-workers and free internet resources.

Cons

The pay at MB is a little bit too low, even for a basic entry-level position like tech SDR. That's because; A) It is headquarted in McLean, VA where the average household income is in excess of $220,000. B) The workday begins an hour earlier than just about every office job ever C) The quotas are stiff, and YOU WILL HAVE TO GRIND, no matter how slick your cold call sales skills are. I've heard the atmosphere is too disorganized and invocative of 'bro-culture' from a few of my peers during my time. I'd slightly agree, but it didn't bother me too much. There is no diversity amongst the leadership, and generally I feel (but cannot say factually) diversity feels mediocre. I'd say most employees are white males from an upper-middleclass suburban background.

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.
