Don't lose the uniqueness that made Concur a great company.

Pros

1. $$$

Very competitive salary/comp structure for an entry-level sales role. Plenty of opportunity to make great money at this position.

2.) Company culture (best part of the job)

This team is full of fun and smart people that you’ll actually enjoy working with. You’ll build friendships and make connections that will last for years.

3.) Professional and personal development

Sales, marketing, operations - whatever area you’d like to learn or develop skills, this team and position will provide you with the opportunity to do so.

Advice to Management

Upper leadership should sit and shadow reps more often. At least one Sr. Director every quarter should be spending a half day with an individual MDR/team. It’s an easy way to boost morale, and it’ll help fast track the systematic roadblocks that effect MDR efficiencies.

Pros

Great support across the board, and incredibly intelligent colleagues. Agility with substantial resources, and treated fairly throughout.

Advice to Management

Continue seeking advice and feedback from current employees and take risks w/regards to travel products.

Advice to Management

I love this team and I love Concur. I can’t think of a better place to be as a growing marketer and professional.

Keep moving the SMN organization in the direction it is going. I’ve been on the SMN Marketing team 2+ years, and in the last 1 year we have seen a lot of very positive growth and change. Changes that needed to be made.

For those of us that have been on the team for a while, it is refreshing to see where we are today. And my historical understanding of how and why we made past decisions is more valuable than ever before. I’m also being given opportunities that never existed for me before - like building a business strategy and presenting business results to stakeholders.

Many new team members and new leaders that are bringing great ideas. My boss is one of them - and is the best!

I am happy to see that we are embracing team diversity in the form of culture, backgrounds and skill sets as we hire. This has been a good thing for SMN and is a good influence on overall Concur culture. This is easy to see in the revived team atmosphere and great business results.

I’ve appreciated the additional investment in communication & transparency across the team, and increased investments in career growth. These are areas that had been missing for me.

Pros

Good culture, Possible advancement, Fun coworkers

Advice to Management

Be realistic when talking to employees about their career advancement and where they are at. Be upfront and tell them what they have to do to get where they want to go. Don't play employees against each other when they are all working hard to grow the company and market share. A lot of great people and friends are put in awkward situations when it comes to career advancement because management tells everyone that they can move up after one year in market development which is completely false. The company is also constantly hiring externally while playing their internal employees against each other. This forces great employees to leave because they are undervalued. Some MDR's are promoted after 1 year and others are still working as an MDR after 3-4 years.

Pros

-Concur has unlimited opportunities for career growth (once out of Market dev.)
-The people you work with are fun, friendly, and you will want to hang out out with them outside of work
-The product is amazing, and if you are able to get to a point in the company that you get to sell the product and not a meeting, it really is a value-added service
-Great Benefits

Advice to Management

When I left the morale of the Market Development floor was at an all time low, and only sinking further.

I would recommend for upper leadership to take a deep look at how the MDR's are currently being trained, coached, and how they are being compensated.

Unfortunately when I left, top performers were the unhappiest on the floor, because the light at the end of the tunnel was being forced smaller and smaller
