      Disapproves of CEO

      I worked at Yodle full-time (Less than a year)

      Pros

      Big contemporary building, free fattening lunches.

      Cons

      Extremely low base, silly unprofessional environment. Very loud hard rock and rap music that plays constantly starting at 8am. It felt like a cult. 38 people started in my training class and by the time training was over it was about 15. The absolute worst job I ever had. They force force force a script. I give it a ZERO STAR. You'll get paid more working at McDonalds.

      Advice to Management

      You can do better if you tried.

      Pros

      Met some lifelong friends. The potential to make serious money is there.

      Cons

      The base pay is not enough to sustain a living. It's hard work and you're rewards are dictated by your ability to perform within the box they've created. Not many people can do it. And many sales are made to spite the value brought to SMB's.

      Advice to Management

      Reward those who perform above the rest and fire people that are not right for the job...too many hopefuls are strung along to meet metrics.
