Pros

- gives you experience in tech sales and on the phone with prospects each day - good opportunity to grow your network quickly - hiring process is easy

Cons

I would pay most attention to these cons.. This place mentally and physically made me sick every day. Kiss your life goodbye, your pets and your family, you’ll never see them only on weekends (but mB encourages you to work weekends so probably not) - below average pay to live in ANY city or state. You will be hurting for cash and will not be able to save. They say you get “bonuses” and “there is 1,000 ways to get compensation” DON’T believe them. The offer letter will trick you into thinking it’s easy but it isn’t. Hit your quota one time and they give you an extra $1,000 to your base pay.. but if you don’t hit quota the next month they will take it away from you. They find ways to take money not give it. - if you don’t subscribe to their “culture” you don’t fit in. Prepare for frat brothers everywhere, below average work environment with small cubicle, 1990’s technology, and people who genuinely believe being a “certified hustler” is cool and going to get them somewhere. -management micromanages you all day long. Managers are too young and try too hard to get respect, when really, no one respects them because they act like dictators. -mB puts you into a 15 month contract and if you don’t make it 15 months you have to pay them back for the most BARE MINIMUM training and the flight to DC. Training is awful and the trainers are the equivalent of College Orientation staff. Embarrassing and completely ridiculous 3 days stuffed in a classroom. - the hours 8:30-5pm are horrendous. It is impossible to have a work/life balance. You might as well get a sleeping bag and stay the night under your cubicle.z The job takes 5 hours but you’re stuck sitting for over 8 hours a day. You hardly will leave early even though they say you will, and if you do leave early it’ll be 15 minutes before 5pm. - you will never not be in a meeting!!!!! Between “academy training”, your delivery managers AM/PM huddles, weekly Wednesday training (most of it never applies to anything), senior SDR trainings on Thursdays (pointless moment for SDR’s to act like they’re big shots and really dope), and all of the other weekly call evals and 1:1’s.. you will be exhausted. Turn the other way.. memoryBlue is literally a pyramid scheme. It is terrible. The CEO’s are trash, they have no idea how to run a business. MD & DM’s are too young to manage offices and be good managers.. all promoted too soon with zero potential in life to be anything other than mB workers. This place targets college grads with no money and tons of student debt and loops you into a contract. NOT WORTH IT! RUN! BLOCK THE RECRUITER IN YOUR INBOX!

Pros

If you are looking for a job out of college and want to get to 6 figures fast and have no issue being miserable and working for a crap company than this a decent place for you. You will have a chance to make a good salary after sticking it out here.

Cons

Having worked in a real company before this job I was lucky enough to quickly realize just how bad this place is. They hire kids out of college for cheap, guilt and scare then into buying into their system and not leaving, and make a bunch of money off of the kids they treat like crap. The training is decent but it’s cold call training.. not a real sales training. Maybe train the kids a little bit on the client they’re working on. Then again it really doesn’t matter because all you’re doing in this role is making 100 un-targeted calls a day and trying to get a meeting. SDR’s are robots in this process and memoryBlue embodies that to a tee. To all college graduates looking for a job: There is other options out there where you can feel valued, learn more by being around better people, make solid money, and not hate waking up every morning to go work.

Pros

There is nothing good to say about this place.

Cons

This place was the most toxic work environment I have ever experienced in my life. I wish I could give this place zero stars. Management is horrible, co-workers are extremely childish, and this place screams "frat culture." Your success is all contingent upon your client & if you're stuck on a tough client management does not care at all.

Thank you for your feedback here on Glassdoor. We have addressed the client-contingent success comment in other responses on this page, but the notion that %E2%80%9Cmanagement does not care at all%E2%80%9D when sales development work is tough strains all credibility. Sales development work is *always* tough. But it%E2%80%99s what we do, and have done, for 17 highly successful years. What we care about the most is: 1a) Client Success 1b) Employee Growth & Development. These two component pieces are connected intimately within our walls. We have put in place a vast number of levers to give our staff every possible chance at professional sales success, as well. The remainder of your feedback feels less constructive, so we%E2%80%99ll pass on addressing those statements and simply wish you well in your future professional endeavors.
