Pros

Free pop and vitamin water & pop. Medical PPO was good.casual dress.

Cons

30 minutes lunch,low saluary for a billion dollar company, no 401k match, unlimited time off (it's deceitful) GOB managers demanding that you work unpaid overtime. So how it works is you have to clock in your hours ( 40 a week) only because they got in trouble for overworking reps. They still do, and look down on people who leave at 5pm. Everyone is drinking the kool aid at Groupon, and its scary. Hire around 15 people a month for GOB, oh and get this they tell people "you are the best of the best" HA! Most of my team was afraid of our manager, and the the person that sat next to me was afraid to quit because out of fear of the manager's reaction. A guy on our team was fired even after he met the 16 sales in 16 weeks on the last day of the deadline. Groupon does not care about its people, and everyone that works there knows it. I am glad i found a higher paying job, and left this abomination of a company.

Pros

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Cons

Management doesn’t care about you. Unrealistic goals. Everyone at 30-40% of quota. Complicated quota attainment system. Your job is to ask for 70% of margins for small businesses that have only 10-15% margin budgets
