Pros

Good people working there. Managers are very open and always available for questions/help. Generally had a 1on1 meeting w/ manager once a week to discuss numbers and your current quota, pacing, projecting, etc.. Also great benefits and perks with excellent training program. However, if you do not like to cold-call 75-100 real estate agents/per day...this job is not for you.

Cons

Too aggressive of quotas (sometimes). When I worked there- 2 parts to quota: 1. new subs (new subscribers) and 2. Rev (revenue). The quotas would change month-to-month (as most sales jobs) but would constantly change prices of products we offered and add or discontinue others. My advice- go in as an AR (account rep) vs. an AE (account exec). Yes base salary is a little lower but so is quota which will allow you to exceed your overall monthly quota to make more money vs being an AE and having trouble hitting numbers month in and month out.

Pros

Benefits are fantastic! Company Happy hours. Nice break room area with snacks supplied....like lots of snacks. Your co-workers are really nice.

Cons

Cheerleader style management. High stress. Ever increasing goals/budgets to hit....to make money. Quotas that go up mid month. Constantly changing goals and initiatives keeps $ out of reach. You would think they manage to try and not pay you a commission. Seriously. Seems like they solely manage to the stock price. Goals skyrocket when they need a good quarterly report. Trulia seems very happy to constantly keep the commission check just out of reach. Even though we are hitting record sales numbers the commission checks have becoming more elusive.

Pros

Good people, decent pay - once had a very good chance of being an awesome place to work .

Cons

If you love a culture where sucking up is the way to get ahead - this is the place to be - Ever since the new management has come in and taken over the Denver office Innovation, Intelligence and People matter has fallen by the wayside. Easily the most incompetent executives I have ever seen operate. If you want to work for a company where " not rocking the boat" and automatically agreeing with the highest paid person in the room is rewarded - apply here! It is unfortunate that they would hire so many leaders with a lack of imagination. A once promising company has become just another place to work. If you enjoy blending in and agreeing to get by - this is the place to be. If you have any real ambition or independent thought - beware. Additionally - it is well known that management is asked to write positive 5 star reviews to this site once a month, so be aware when reading all the "awesome" feedback.
