Pros

I work fully remote and I feel like I'm in a hyped up office all day with all the group support on internal messages. I have been literally ENCOURAGED to take time off by my bosses on multiple occasions and to make sure I have vacations scheduled. On top of that, the OTE is extremely attainable and the ration of salary/OTE is more than possible to surpass. This company also gives a chance to a lot of people who have ZERO sales experience, and builds them up with the abilities to be great. Also, the career paths are endless here.

Cons

The stock share takes a couple years to vest but that's really not a big deal.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience as a ZoomInfo SDR. It’s great to hear that you’re feeling the ZoomInfo culture remotely! This is exactly what we set out to achieve at the beginning of the pandemic. We know it’s been a difficult 18 months, and we’ve tried to be very diligent in our communications around the importance of using our flexible PTO policy to make sure you’re not burning out. It sounds like you’re having no problem hitting your number – way to go! I’m personally very proud that we hire so many people right out of school with no sales experience. I have tons of colleagues who started here just like that and are now extremely successful sales professionals. It just goes to show that ZoomInfo is second to none when it comes to learning and development. Thanks again for leaving us feedback, and if you have any additional thoughts please feel free to reach out to me. – Brian Vital, ZoomInfo Vice President of Sales Development

Pros

Great tool. Product and Engineering deserve a round of applause.

Cons

I’ll just summarise: - For a long time I worked 10-13 hour work weeks. Eventually they put into place an overtime program but only top performing reps could request time. This led to people working extra hours and not logging their time honestly, to ensure that they could keep up with the pace. - My boss showing up late to multiple meetings because they overslept. Or the constant use of explicit language… - People getting fired left and right. People also getting hired left and right. Survival of the fittest. In fact, their entire sales organisation is built on this model. - Demo day? Don’t even let me get started… My advice to anyone in their early 20s getting out of college: don’t put yourself through this. There are so many other, better, modern, tech startups to work at, that won’t milk you dry.

Thanks for your feedback. I agree with you – our Engineering and Product teams do a phenomenal job creating the modern go-to-market platform. It’s been a pleasure for me to sell during my tenure with ZoomInfo. As a former SDR myself, I know the challenges of the role very well, but I firmly believe that it’s the best possible arena to learn the foundations of tech sales. So with that in mind, I’d like to take the opportunity to respond to your concerns. I’m disappointed to hear that some people may not have been logging their time correctly. Our switch to hourly for SDRs was intended to help our reps better balance their work and life. It’s fairly typical for companies to deny overtime to under-performing employees, but it is not accurate to say that we only approve overtime for top performers. In fact, we haven’t denied any overtime requests since the switch was made. The feedback I’ve received from this change has been overwhelmingly positive. Regarding turnover, you would find the same situation amongst SDRs at any other tech company. It’s an entry level position where folks find out if Sales is a career they see for themselves. It’s not the right fit for everyone. Add to that the current job market and our astronomical rate of growth, and I can see how you might get a perception of high turnover. In reality, our turnover rate is below the industry benchmark. We 100% want to see everyone grow and succeed here, but we’re a high-performing, fast-paced culture and have high expectations of all our employees. It’s how we’ve been so successful. I am concerned about your report of a manager acting unprofessionally, and I apologize for that. We take these reviews very seriously and will look into this immediately. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts. I wish you the best. – Brian Vital, ZoomInfo Vice President of Sales Development

Pros

Being at a market-leading company makes ZoomInfo an easy sell. The organization arms you with all the best tools you could ever need. Leadership is incredibly hard-working, passionate, and inspiring.

Cons

Sales reps get paid when cash is collected from clients. Sometimes clients don't pay their invoices and as result, you don't get commission checks for the hard work you put in. Or, if you close a multi-year contract and leave the organization, you won't get paid for the closed business you sourced the company!
