Pros

Small atmosphere, each employee has their own office. However; the pressure and volume of cold calling and securing meeting will not be an environment for everyone. Everyone is busy behind closed doors at this privately held company.

Cons

No Sales training, it's a dart's toss some day it's good some day it sucks.

Our Team now works from home and comes to the office twice a month for team-building. Closed doors are not a thing on in-office days. We have implemented several lead-generation tools, so there is no cold calling anymore. And we have created a sales training program to help new Sales Reps quickly get up to speed.

Pros

Compassionate and friendly staff Woman-owned business Virtus code of ethics

Cons

Not much opportunity to climb the ladder, as employees tend to stay for a long time (which can be seen as a pro as it shows that people are happy with their job/company)

Pros

Work/Life Balance Good commission structure Friendly and helpful teammates

Cons

Lack of transparency and poor communication/leadership Management does seem to listen to tenured employees, and they have a low/non-existent success rate with new hires. It's a revolving door for new sales people despite hiring very solid talent (in my opinion). People that leave have a lot better success elsewhere. It doesn't seem like they're willing or able to put the necessary investment in new territories to empower reps to be successful. They fire people without warning. They also tried to fire me the same day I was planning to put in my two week notice, and they would not tell me why. I suspect they were monitoring my chats because I had told a couple employees I had found a new job that same day. When I asked why they were firing me, my boss just said they are being "purposely vague," and would not offer any further explanation. I had the biggest sale of 2023 and they gave me a raise after achieving 80% quota in my first full year of selling (every other new rep I've seen could not achieve over 20% of quota unless they were a former member success manager being assigned to an established territory that has in-person events. I was not able to go to live events in my territory despite doubling the book of business. It wasn't a level playing field at all. Beware.
