Thank you for posting your anonymous feedback in this forum. As you point out, memoryBlue is set up to help every single employee launch a lucrative sales career. We ramp our hires fast and provide an outstanding array of training methods and techniques that arm sales people like you with skills and knowledge you will draw upon forever. Those real skills have very real, very high value in the corporate world. The industry access and network we instantly unlock for budding sales pros that come work for us is also a huge benefit to our employees. In particular, our Silicon Valley office has exploded this year in terms of employees being hired out by clients – a truly great benefit of working here. With respect to the $3,000 signing bonus that was in effect when you joined the firm (which is no longer part of our business), it functioned the same way any similar bonus or advanced payment (relocation fee, etc) works at virtually any other business. Advanced payments are typically designed to reward and incentivize employees, but they always have some measure of rules and expected length of tenure around them. As you were made aware when joining memoryBlue, every person we bring in to memoryBlue gets a large investment from us. Between the bonus (in your case), your comprehensive sales training, your wide array of client access, your manager’s coaching, your network building and much more, we are proud of that significant investment which carries big value for employees. That you’re seemingly upset about such an investment having a very small set of rules around it is incredibly disappointing. As for comp plans, manager hearsay, unfounded personal allegations, and common complaints about sales clients not being equal, we’ve addressed those items in prior responses here. If you have one or more that you’d like to discuss personally, the CoFounders’ doors are always open and either/both would gladly hop on a call at any point to go into more detail with you. We do wish you success in your future sales career endeavors and we’re at least encouraged that you took away many positive things from your time at our company.
