Pros

1 WFH day and the coffee is pretty good

Cons

This role is a mix of sales and account management with low pay. Most of the company struggles to hit KPIs, which are often unrealistic. Before WM acquired the company, about two-thirds of the sales floor was on a performance improvement plan. The only reason they were taken off was that it didn’t look good during the acquisition. They advertise "uncapped commission," but that’s misleading—large volume orders (LVOs) are capped at 50% if they exceed your monthly quota. Even if you land a big deal, they make sure you don’t get the full commission. The main issue is the high KPIs paired with low commissions, and even when you do hit targets, the payout structure keeps shifting. Success isn’t based on sales skills as much as the luck of your assigned territory and how well your operations team handles the deals you close. The only real perks are a guaranteed salary for the first three months and shorter workdays during training. If you're looking for a temporary gig while job hunting, this could work.
