"Start-up Company" is not a good excuse for treating employees like this - Anonymous employee Townsquare Interactive Employee Review

Pros

The coworkers are great, but the stress placed on everyone makes it very hard to do more than just nod hello in the morning. There are a few who are able to socialize all the time, but these are the same people who were considered management's favorites.

Cons

They use the term start-up company to justify dumping on the employees. As others leave the company, their clients are just dropped on you and you are expected to call up to 50 clients a day. The amount of work keeps growing, and you are criticized when you ask for assistance. The management puts you off for weeks when you ask them to help you resolve an issue, which leads to unsatisfied clients that you are blamed for. They make promises of promotions, positions, and bonuses but these promises never come through. I have told friends NOT to apply here because I do not want them to go through this.

Pros

If you can sell you can work here for about 7 or 8 months. If you don’t have a soul, you could see yourself here maybe 7 or 8 years. Some people go for 14 only to be spat out in an instant. I would only recommend it to those looking for a trial by fire in sales. If you end up working here just make sure you stay for a good time not a long time. It’s great if you wanna meet people after moving to Charlotte.

Cons

You know I go back in forth with these guys. I worked here in 2021 and 22 and only made it about 8 months. I did well there. Hit my quota consistently, even exceeded it. Was one of the best reps on my team, quickly. But after not too long I started to notice that the product wasn’t aligning to how I was trained. We were being told by sales trainers and managers one thing, when another was actually the case. Personally I had a big problem with that. I realized that what I was being paid to promote was a complete lie and that I was potentially taking advantage of small businesses. It got harder and harder the longer I stayed and eventually I found something a lot better. And then soon after leaving I posted this scathing review on here that I later took down because I thought hey maybe it’ll get better right? Well today I saw that their head of sales is all of a sudden leaving the company. And over the years I’ve watched as countless top reps, managers, and executives have all come and gone. Then you look at all these reviews over the years and they’re all the same. Nothings changed since I’ve been there it seems besides the people who speak the lies. The theme never changes and the people there the longest are the worst kind of people. People who are more than happy to take money from people who barely have any at all for something that will never work. If you’re that kind of person then get ready for an exciting next decade.
