Pros

Initially, great atmosphere and people. Seemed like it would be a great career. The leadership is very emotionally charged in a good way(lot of rah rah speeches to hype the crowd).

Cons

Was hired on as a closer role…was told I’d be fed leads and be in a territory around where I lived. Was given legitimately one of the worst areas with incredibly low income/rough economics (the guy they fired from my team who had the territory, couldn’t even make a sale in it the month prior, and he’d been there for 3 years). You won’t get many leads if your territory is up north…..I saw it from no less than 10 AE’s who struggled from Brooklyn to Michigan…all over NYC (you won’t get a major metropolis). Basically, if you want to work for a call center for a few months, and have an incredibly short lifespan at a business, this is absolutely the place for you. You will receive a highly unorganized training and if you ask for product knowledge, the answer to that question will be “just keep dialing” or “podium math”. Oh, and last but not least, be prepared to have the metrics on your “graduation” from bike shop change on you weekly. If you hit the metrics, they’ll change them to make it more difficult for you to graduate. Firing 280+ out of 350 people just over the past few months is terrible business practice.
