Pros

After working at memoryBlue for a few months, I feel like I could easily pick up any SDR role at any company and quickly transition into an Account Executive role. The training is top notch and I can comfortably navigate any objections thrown at me by prospects. I've learned a lot about the industry of my campaign and have gotten comfortable talking to C-Suites, VPs, and Directors of some of the largest companies in the world. Very fun work environment, young office that are very social and it is not uncommon for us to spend time together outside of work, have made great friends and career connections through memoryBlue and my assigned campaign.

Cons

Your experience here is pretty heavily dependent on the campaign you are assigned. Some are objectively easier than others and some are just more enjoyable or interesting than others. Quota attainment is not as easy as they advertise during the application process, for most it takes a few months to actually hit quota and getting a base pay bump is very difficult. This makes the pay a bit rough as you end up stuck around the $42,500 base salary for a while which is not a lot. There are also a lot of instances where people will hit quota after putting in a lot of hard work but then management concludes that their current quota is too easy and raises it the following month making it even harder to hit and earn a base pay bump and quota bonuses. The best way to make money is through PPM (Pay Per Meeting) campaigns but you only get access to those after hitting quota and even after you earn the ability to call for them it is difficult to find the time while also hitting the required metrics for your original campaign.

Pros

Great learning experience. Lots of like minded individuals in same steps as you and great to form connections with them and networking with your clients. Old comp plan was great. Learn the basics of sales so you can bring it back to your future jobs. Should only be seen as a stepping stone unless you wish to become a manager or director internally. Give you $3k to spend on a vacation of your choosing.

Cons

No commission. New pay structure and unattainable quotas make it really difficult to make extra money or move up from $42,500 initial base. Very campaign based. Used to have an extra incentive if you did well enough you could go to an all expense paid for trip to Cancun called TOPS, I doubt they are bringing that back ever and it was a shame because they stopped it right before I was supposed to attend for first time.
