MemoryBlue reviews

Thanks for taking time to post your comments in this anonymous forum. Glassdoor is a great place for an exchange of thoughts, so here are ours. We have an extensive hiring process that you went through which clearly outlined this early-stage sales role. In fact, learning to execute and master a multi-touch cadence to conduct outbound prospecting into the C-Suite on behalf of multi-million dollar tech-oriented clients, many of whom are highly interested in building out a larger sales team, is most assuredly sales (unless you consider ringing people up at a cash register to be sales oriented, in which case we may be speaking different languages). If you arrived at memoryBlue with an unclear understanding of what you were going to do and learn, then there was a willful disconnect on your part. Still, your statements about training, bonuses and the work environment are demonstrably false (but that’s the beauty of Glassdoor and anonymous posting – facts can be optional). We will happily invite any individual (or you, personally) to come view any/all of our bonus pools earnings reports and payouts across the company. But as you know, you (and every employee here) saw them on a daily basis already. The final accounting from last month alone easily dispels the notion that SDRs don’t earn bonuses on top of their base pay (for example, we had an SDR earn close to $10,000 in bonuses in one single month in 2017 – and this person did it by booking a bunch of "hard" PPM meetings). As you’re also aware, our extensive training comes in a variety of forms and formats on a regular basis – these range from 1x1 coaching sessions, regular team call review sessions, weekly full staff training sessions, multiple multi-media exercises, classroom-style presentation performances and much more. But perhaps the most ironic thing you highlighted in your notes above is this – you clearly chose to NOT hustle, to NOT work hard and to NOT show intellectual curiosity about the tech sales profession, and you still indicate that you were hired out into the space. This speaks to the scarcity, insane demand and immense respect the marketplace has for tech sales professionals with training and background from memoryBlue stamped on their resume. It pains us to think how well you could be doing if you had truly immersed yourself in our training and worked to improve your sales game. We provide the knowledge, the coaching and the opportunity, but what someone makes of it is completely of their own choosing. All of that said, we wish you nothing but the best of luck going forward (if you believe “luck” is what it takes to make it and you stick with sales).
