Pros

You will get a lot of experience with generating leads in the technology space and will meet some great people at the company that want to see you do your very best.

Cons

1) If you are put on a bad client that is difficult to work with (which happens a lot) you will eventually be put on a program called PIP where you either hit quota in a month or get fired. 2) If you get put on a PPM account with quota try to find the exit as fast as possible. These clients are the bottom of the barrel with dead lists and they are extremely difficult to work with. If you do not hit quota while on a PPM account you will get put on PIP and eventually be let go. 3)You have to get lucky with your clients or else you will just become overly stressed and burned out within a few months 4) If you do not hit quota for a month you will be put into a hole for your salary which will make it harder to get a bonus for every month you miss quota 5)Office is depressing you will hate coming to work everyday 6)There is always someone that is having a breakdown from the stress of the job 7)You will eventually get screwed by your boss in one way or another just ask around

Thanks for taking the time to post anonymous feedback here at Glassdoor. There’s a consistent theme to your “Cons” comments above and the message is you’re not interested in sales. And, that’s ok. Sales is challenging and requires hard work. There are no short cuts, there is no hiding at a desk or “getting lucky” when it comes to sales success, unfortunately. If that was the hope, it makes sense that you hated coming to a workplace that values hard work and rewards intellectual curiosity. The upside to sales is that, for those that are willing to work hard, learn the ropes and prepare constantly, there are generous rewards and, in fact, an office life that is a lot of fun with a cool culture. While we do our very best to bring in people that are likely to embody these principles, we don’t always hit a home run. The result tends to look something like the above as the person disconnects from our business. We do wish you nothing but the best of luck as you continue down your professional path.

Pros

Good intro to the tech world. Donuts on Thursday, I guess?

Cons

Before I say anything too negative, I must say that memoryBlue helped me get my next job. There, I said it. Other than that, mB is a very corrupt and poorly-managed company. Managers would come to work clearly hungover, the CEOs were never seen, and coworkers were able to basically run freely. But then again, there is a micromanagement in place because of how the metrics are so closely tracked. So feel free to mess around ... But not too much.

Pros

Great training (depending on your mentor). Good intro into the world of IT Sales (kinda).

Cons

Hope you are a lucky person, if you get stuck with an awful client (way to many to name) then your life is going to be really hard. You will put more time than a lot of people and you will watch people with easy clients leave early everyday and joke around. CEOs pretend like they care, but they really don't.
