Pros

- remote work - equipment is provided

We do measure key sales metrics daily, which some see as micro managing. But anyone that understands sales development knows it is the key to success. We don't believe in scripts, but we do development talk tracks and suggested questions based on number of selling methodologies we practice. We proudly have a very diverse workforce, representing all age ranges (20’s to 70’s) approximately 1/3 are women and 1/3 are minorities. We have implemented one overall of our compensation program in 4 years which resulted in a 19% increase in earnings for our sales team, although it does favor top performers. But it sales after all.

Pros

100% remote, great company to work for, variety of programs “something for everyone,” and flexibility.

Cons

There’s room for growth in the sense of learning, but promotional opportunities are hard to come by.

Pros

Friendly management. Equipment provided. Variety of programs.

Cons

No upward mobility. Unstable leadership. No ability to give input into process (stubborn and unyielding). Outdated tools. Small company, but employees still get overlooked. Very much a "what have you done for me lately" culture. If somebody is performing well and then someone else starts performing better, the other person is treated like they no longer matter. As Ricky Bobby would say, you are either first or last. Quota expectations are unrealistic. Most quotas are double the industry average for purely outbound, cold calling lead generation (would be more realistic if there was inbound or marketing leads). This leads to quick demoralization as people fail to meet quotas regularly and increase pay.
