Pros

Base salary was good and sign on bonus was generous

Cons

They hired me to sell the product Did not tell me about the hundreds of cold calls that I would need to make Did not tell me I would split all of my deals 50/50 with my “mentor” for my first 2 years The training was pathetic, I truly wonder if the trainers ever sold anything in their life The whole company was white people, no diversity The sales CRM was outdated Was promised inbound leads and a whole team of SDRs working under us.. in reality it was 1 SDR for 10 reps. All leads were fed to the most veteran reps My Director never worked, all of the reps on my team are convinced/know that he is working two jobs. Never had time for any of us never trained anyone 1 on 1, always cancelled meetings- was the laughing stock of the Directors in the company GO TO ANY OTHER COMPANY
