Pros

The people who work in this office are awesome! I loved the environment and positive attitude of mostly every one there. It is truly a great company and I miss working there daily. Upper management truly listens and makes you feel important. The ceo and cfo knew my name, and would talk to me every time I saw them. You won’t have that at most companies. No work place is perfect, and there are definitely things that need worked on, but for a young company they have tackled a lot of the issues most people complain about here. The BDR job is not glamorous by any means. It takes a lot of hard work and luck. The people that do well put in a lot of effort and it didn’t go unnoticed. The bdr job just wasn’t for me. If I would have started in another department, I would’ve stayed at Roadrunner for a long time.

Cons

No work life balance. Parking/commuting can get really expensive. All of the sales coaches had different rules/exceptions for their teams which made it unfair to a lot of the BDRS. Commission structure needs worked on

Pros

Most money I've ever made in this type of role. Manageable workload for the most part, unless you grab too many complex tickets or have things start to go sideways. Great benefits. Fun team atmosphere and culture. Have seen many people on my team get promoted into higher roles so far, so I feel like I can take my path in my own hands and push it as far as I want.

Cons

Disorganized and constantly evolving processes that live and die by "FYI's", many that you only suss out when you come across a new situation. They've tried to codify a lot of processes and have done a good job, but many are still "you need to find out in order to know". No robust task system that is oriented by roles and expectations/capabilities rather than individual's names, which is... ponderous. Need a role to do something? Go look in a directory for the person doing that at the moment (subject to change, may not be updated/old info, person could be on vacation, etc) then send it to them, rather than dropping a task in a bucket that someone assigned to that role sees. The difference sounds small but it's immense in practice. Some of the fees and charges a customer can accrue are difficult to explain because they're nakedly bill stuffing.
