Pros

WFH. Amazing employees who are under-appreciated

Cons

A high-up female executive of 9 years who was widely respected among the org was terminated as a result of an HR investigation into one her subordinates sexist misconduct. The rep in question actively preaches treating the contractors we work with poorly, and with contempt. This is a toxic attitude that proliferates the sales floor. The product does not work and you must lie about it. Well, not lie. Just say these legal department approved half-truths. But if you struggle to sell? It's not the company, it's your ability to be constantly, unflinchingly positive! They have done layoffs and lied to us about it. What is happening to the sales floor is essentially a quiet layoff. The only people who have any hope are new or have no moral or ethical compass. The base salary is not a living wage. You used to be able to make money here. But ever since some ill-advised changes as of 2023, most reps I work with have taken nearly a 50% pay cut. High pressure sales tactics. Old, beat up leads. I could go on. There is a reason their stock and profits are plunging.

Pros

The environment is amazing! All trainers, management, and honestly anyone in the company I have spoke with have all been truly wonderful to work with. The training process is very thorough and SO much help is out there from multiple people if you're needing help with anything. They keep you motivated and working but having fun while doing so. It's a very inclusive environment and they put a big focus on employee care. I've worked for some companies in the past that were miserable.. for the first time in years, i'm honestly loving my job!

Cons

It can be very mentally demanding. Time management skills, patience, and dedication to stepping out of your comfort zone is needed.

Pros

The culture is generally positive, and leadership is accessible. Management is willing to meet with employees and listen to concerns. There are talented people throughout the organization, and the work can be rewarding if you enjoy sales and helping businesses grow.

Cons

The biggest challenge is the compensation structure. The company promotes uncapped commissions, but many employees feel earnings are effectively controlled through continually increasing quotas and changing performance targets. Revenue and nominal goals are adjusted so frequently that it can feel like the finish line is always moving. What's particularly frustrating is that the majority of the sales team often struggles to reach 100% of quota, yet goals continue to rise. This creates the perception that compensation expense is being managed through quota increases rather than by allowing top performers to fully benefit from the revenue they generate. Over time, this can discourage high achievers. Employees who consistently perform well are often expected to deliver significantly more results each year just to maintain the same level of compensation. When exceptional performance is met with ever-increasing targets instead of proportionally increasing rewards, motivation suffers.
