Pros

Good commission rates, decent products, fairly relaxed environment (private side), good location. Good company events (summer & Christmas parties & quarterly awards). Generally good atmosphere in the office. Incentives, games, team nights out etc.

Cons

Difficult to move into a senior position. Certain products won't make much money. Some salaries for certain positions are abysmal. Rarely increase annual salary, even if you are a solid performer. KPI driven rather than performance led (public side). Lack of investment in products and delivering less services while wanting more revenue (public side).

Pros

Some alright people- standard commission structure

Cons

cold calling every second of the day. Thats all youll do, as if you dont - management will sack you. Was told id only do 2 hours on the phone a day. Turns out that was a lie and you actually spend your whole entire day on the phone- I promise you.

Pros

it was my first job so obviously that is the only reason I always will pay gratitude towards this company. for me this is the only good point

Cons

Management is pathetic. Favoritism is at its height, if you favorite of the manager or the lead then you ill get to learn a lot, you will get opportunities on working on multiple tasks and if you are not then you are totally ignored, and this favoritism is on the basis of how your personnel relations are with them. Professionalism is zero, people use words like "Anna" for there managers which is completely non professional. the management or leads will never praise you no matter how much work you do, for the manager the first impression is the last impression no matter how fast you grow they will always consider your first impression in mind. the team leads just wanted to have a good impression in front of the management and for that they won't mind hiding there mistakes and putting all the blames over the associates. if you are in GDME team the another team will always mock you that you do nothing. no matter how much hard work you do how much long hours you work, your manager & project head will just come and say infront of the whole office that this team is useless it do nothing only few people work and they are only doing everything
