Pros

- Some decent perks and bennies - Excellent sales methodology training and development - *some* creative ways to incentivize performance or deal influence (with a catch) - Proven product, leader in the data brokerage space with great market fit

Cons

- Micromanagement to the nth degree - Good ol' boys frat house sales bro culture, abysmal gender equity - Insulting pay disparity between two people doing the same jobs - Some foolish reps running on a steady diet of Kool-Aid fed to them by ZI leadership - "Unlimited" PTO is actually "uncapped" but it is very limited. Little to no PTO granted towards the end of each month nor the ENTIRE MONTH of December. - One of those sales orgs will capriciously change your comp plan and from what I've witnessed will fight you tooth and nail to contort what they should pay you once you leave - Nothing in the tech stack works seamlessly and usually takes several days to fix once multiple people complain about the same issue. - Worst onboarding experience I've ever seen in several years in tech - Lack of fluidity in sales ops that creates obstacles rather than enables the ability to influence deals in a positive way, causes friction between reps - Lack of accountability from the lead gen team to properly qualify leads - Management often serves as a mouthpiece for the Scrooges up top, who lead from the rear, causing them to not only be disconnected but entirely self-serving. - Be ready to leave here with a brown nose and a knife in your back, culture encourages it - Sales leadership is scratching their heads how to incentivize their reps, at least in the segments I've been associated with, yet they throw so many of the above in, they just end up driving people into silos, discouraging group participation, and ultimately demotivate their reps

Hello, thanks for this feedback and your compliments about our product and training programs. From your review, I gather you are experiencing some frustration in your current position. My goal is for everyone in my org to find the right fit and reach their goals. Many of the concerns you voiced surprised me, as I have not heard them echoed in other corners of the New Sales group. If you feel comfortable with it, I would really like to chat about how we can work together to make this right and hear more about your concerns. I can’t promise that I’ll be able to fix everything – for example, our PTO black-out dates are pretty standard for the tech sales industry – but I’d like to address what I can. If you don’t feel comfortable coming to me, please do reach out to your HR Business Partner. As you know, our mantra is to get 1% every day. We can only improve with open and honest communication. Thanks again for bringing these topics to our attention. – Steven Bryerton, ZoomInfo Senior Vice President of New Sales

Pros

So many positive things to say: 1. Diverse, creative, intelligent co-workers and managers 2. Excellent pay and benefits 3. Learning and working with the best sales and CRM technology 4. Unlimited room for growth 5. SDR is a challenging entry level position with rapid advancement into higher level sales roles, management, or to other tech specialties 6. Competitive and yet very supportive and congenial atmosphere 7. RESPECT 8. Celebration of all successes 9. Communication and connection - open door policy with a commitment to support and success, team bonding encouraged 10. Many remote roles 11. Appreciation of effort

Cons

The only downside would be if you don't want to work hard; if you want an easy job where you don't use your brain, look elsewhere.
