Pros

I joined GEP about 2 weeks ago and already feel like part of the team. Everyone within my group has been engaging and supportive. The on-boarding was well structured and organized, and having the connection with a buddy prior to joining helped ease the tension of the first day. The vibe of the Clark office is always vibrant and collaborative. Within my first week, we had an HR outing, office lunch, bagel Friday, and Diwali celebration and lunch. It is apparent that GEP values their employees and I look forward to growing with the company!

Cons

The company is growing rather quickly, so it will likely need to create new, and improve existing, processes while simultaneously maintaining the culture.

Pros

Opportunity to learn about procurement, build your professional network, and learn how to survive in a difficult corporate culture.

Cons

Base salary is 20-30% lower than the industry standard for enterprise sales reps and turnover on the sales team is very high. Poor sales onboarding, very limited training, no sales enablement, limited positive engagement with sales management; sales team collaboration is neither supported nor encouraged; management style is to rule by fear and intimidation, which is a trickle-down from ownership. Pricing, established by leadership, never seems to be competitive, so many deals are lost. In spite of that, there is pressure to close deals within 7 months in an industry with an 18-24 mo. sales cycle. At that point, you may be abandoned by management, which will alert you that the end is near. So take this job if you need it on your resume, you can accept that it probably won't be long-term, and you have thick skin. Learn as much as you can as quickly as you can, and use this job as a stepping stone to a better opportunity. You will make some friends along the way, as there are lots of of fun, smart people (sales, TSO, pre-sales, consulting, etc.) who are faced with the same difficulties.
