Pros

- Remote Flexibility - tries to make a fun remote work culture - sales competitions for added incentives

Cons

- Micromanagement (DAILY check in calls basically to make sure everyone is awake and working; DAILY Recap emails to tell your manager all about your day.... DAILY Track must be completed and sent to manager to show how many calls you made, how many emails you sent out, how many minutes you were on the phone, etc., DAILY Forecast must be given; Management watches if you are online or offline (expect to be called out if your status goes offline, so much for a bathroom break or lunch more than a half hour) - Termination... WITHOUT NOTICE or PLAN: I was terminated without any notice whatsoever. I was told multiple times within WEEKS of being terminated that you are "doing great" "doing the right things" "Not an underperformer" etc. Not to mention even if say you were a top 5 sales rep on the year on the team in total annual sales and was just 2 months removed from a $50k month, they don't care. All it takes is to be in a "sales slump" and you will be let go. - Growth... or lack there of. No next steps or future within the company - Employee Retention: the company has very high employee retention. I had a number of teammates within my own team quit/fired within a 4 week span. Keep in mind this is a small business so things are done unprofessionally. - Salary is on the low for a sales job. I took this for the commission opportunities, but the job is smile and dial. Management will listen in on your calls and will track what time you are making your calls. You will be questioned what you are doing if they don't see you making a certain number of calls by a certain time. You will be expected to make a minimum of 60 calls a day, more if you do not have meetings on your calendar (which they will check as well)

Hello, Thanks for leaving this review—our sales team is an incredibly important cog in the PerfectServe wheel, so we're always thinking of ways to make these roles more fulfilling. PerfectServe started in the group practice space over 25 years ago, and that aspect of our business remains incredibly important—it contributes a significant amount to the company's bottom line, and we’ve built a repeatable and predictable sales methodology that is supported by a strong team of business specialists. Making phone calls is absolutely part of the day-to-day responsibilities for a business specialist, but that's why we encourage all hiring managers to focus on transparency in the interview process to ensure that candidates are excited about these roles because they know what to expect. These are fast-paced, dynamic positions, and they're structured this way because our leadership team knows how foundational sales activity is to long-term success. It's true that they won't be an ideal match for everybody. Additionally, some elements of the job covered in this review—daily recap emails, forecasts, etc.—speak to the concept of measurement. We believe measurement is a critical function of any business, because we know we can't improve what we can't measure. This team of business specialists has contributed to group practice bookings that are up nearly 100% for the first half of 2022, so we're beyond pleased to see our sales methodology bearing fruit. And finally, when we hire someone, we are committing to their success. We want them to connect to PerfectServe's mission, and we want to give them all the resources they need to thrive. Without generalizing too much, we'll just say that it's absolutely not our policy to release employees on the sales team if they hit a "tough spot." We're all human, after all, so we'd much rather invest the time and effort to learn what's not working to see if some tweaks can turn the tide. Best of luck in your future endeavors! Thanks again for the feedback.

Pros

The mission is real — we're not just selling software, we're improving outcomes for patients and the healthcare workers who care for them. My teammates are passionate, purpose-driven people who are here to make a difference, and that energy is contagious. The company equips you with the tools you need to actually do your job well rather than setting you up to struggle. Work-life balance is genuinely respected here, not just talked about, and when you perform, the company recognizes it — both financially and through real advancement opportunities. Promotions feel earned and attainable.

Cons

Communication from management can be inconsistent at times, which occasionally creates confusion around priorities or direction. Additionally, not all hospital systems have the internal governance structures in place to fully implement and adopt the applications — this can make success feel out of your hands at times. That said, it's also an opportunity to become a trusted advisor and help clients build toward better outcomes.

Pros

PerfectServe has a positive team culture. The people here make a real difference in the day-to-day experience. The fully remote setup with flexible scheduling shows that leadership trusts employees to manage their time and deliver results. One of the standout perks is the access to Senior Leadership. It's rare to feel like your voice can actually reach the top... and here it does.

Cons

The one trade-off of remote work is limited face-to-face connection with your team. It's not a dealbreaker because flexibility is worth it, but more opportunities for in-person collaboration (team offsites, occasional meetups) would go a long way in strengthening those relationships.

Thank you so much for this review! Our marketing team is a tight-knit group, so you definitely know what good team culture looks like. And duly noted about the opportunities for in-person collaboration—it can be tough in a remote world but we're always looking for ways to make stuff like that happen.
