      certainly not a company for someone who is looking for teamwork and teamspirit, "sharks" are welcome

      Pros

      good products, good location, benefits like providing coffee or water and soft drinks and free gym (but these benefits are provided by many other companies as well)

      Cons

      no time given to build a proper pipeline, Lead distribution not equal, targets are not calculated individually by using the employees pipeline and opportunities (you just get one) and they are nearly unreachable, there is NO guaranteed commission for the first months when you start and you have to build a pipeline, poor office equipment (small desks, mostly no natural light, no containers, bad air), bad posisioned desks under air condition causes sickness of employees, calling out closed opportunities (and comments afterward by management) will give new hires a bad feeling - not good for motivation, management expects you to do all necessary training after work at home, no trust into employees

      Pros

      nice office ? and some colleagues

      Cons

      Terrible place to work. I fully agree with others here ...If you have no clue you can learn some (yourself) if you'll have a time to close enough tickets but if you have some experience avoid it will only mess your head up.and you'll be pissed ... Forget about being creative ... it's only work work nothing else .. Understaffed all the time ... Expectations Sky High -Training NONE!!!

      No real culture. A truly hostile environment.

      Pros

      Pay is good. Company is growing rapidly. Opportunity to learn a truly innovative business model firsthand.

      Cons

      There is a small clique of execs and middle managers that create a massive bureaucracy. Finger-pointing is the norm - very little teamwork. Employees are treated as disposable resources. Managers are challenged with unattainable goals, and then are not empowered with authority or budget to effect activities that could help get closer to goals.
