Pros

“Unlimited” but really limited PTO

Cons

After a significant tenure, we've witnessed numerous changes to the compensation plan, leaving BDRs frustrated. Quota attainment remains a challenge, especially with unrealistic expectations set by sales leadership. The recent changes, including a new compensation plan and the exclusion of Small Business Accounts in Q2, have created uncertainty and dwindling motivation. In Q3, higher KPIs were introduced along with a reduction in accounts, making it difficult for most to meet targets. The burnout culture is rampant, and career growth opportunities have vanished. The organization seems out of touch with the competitive market, lacking appealing marketing content and relevant training. BDRs now face limited mobility within the company, with low pay increases even in advanced roles. The sales organization struggles with high turnover, criteria beyond BDR control, and an outdated management style. Constant mid-quarter structural changes disrupt compensation and hinder goal attainment. There are no annual merit increases, even for top performers. As a result, many tenured BDRs are looking elsewhere for opportunities, contributing to the burnout and high turnover issue.

Pros

Honestly, this has been one of the best companies I’ve ever worked for. The WFH setup is great, the benefits are solid, and the work/life balance is real. You’re treated like a professional, and you’re trusted to manage your own desk and get things done. You do need to be good at prioritizing and taking ownership, but if you like that kind of independence, it’s perfect. People are open to feedback too. If you see something that could be better, you can speak up and make suggestions. Overall, just a really great place to work. I genuinely enjoy the people I work with.

Cons

I’d say the salary and bonus structure could be clearer. I don’t always have a good understanding of how those decisions are made, and a little more explanation from leadership would really help.

Pros

The job itself, is easy. Set schedule. PTO and Holidays were generous.

Cons

Leadership issues exist at every level of the organization, from upper management down to frontline supervision. There is very little accountability or advocacy for employees, and local management often seems unwilling or unable to address concerns before they become larger problems. While many of these issues may have existed before Motus took over, the company has done little to improve them and, in many cases, has allowed them to continue unchecked. The workplace culture also suffers from a lack of professionalism. Bullying and disrespectful behavior are often tolerated, creating an environment where negativity spreads rather than being addressed. HR will encourage you to come forward with concerns but having no HR present in the office means you will face social retaliation and whatever professional retaliation leadership can get away with. Employees who consistently work hard and take initiative can feel overlooked, there's no merit in doing a thorough job.
