Cons
I worked at IWI for approximately three months in a BDR role. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing due to a lack of structure, training, and management support.
There was no formal onboarding or product training provided. When I requested proper learning materials, I was given a sales script previously used by an AE and was expected to begin making calls on the second day. The expectation was to make over 125 calls per day, with a strong focus on call volume rather than meaningful results or skill development.
I also experienced challenges with management communication. When I requested occasional work-from-home flexibility due to menstrual pain, the decision required escalation to senior leadership and was ultimately declined in a way that felt dismissive and unsupportive.
Additionally, I was laid off after three months due to not bringing in business, despite not receiving structured training, mentorship, or ramp-up time.
Overall, the environment felt more like a high-volume call center than a consultative BDR role. I believe the company would benefit from clearer onboarding processes, realistic performance expectations, and stronger employee support systems.
