Pros

Great co-workers, lots of training (pretty much as much as you want), great office environment.

Cons

Overworked, underpaid. Long hours, favouritism, overselling during first couple of weeks and interview process. Be prepared for not a lot of work life balance. You’re making about 100-120 calls a day. That’s 15 calls an hour if you’re on track to leave on time. This is possible but also hard if you’re getting a lot of people on the phone. REVGEN openly preaches hustle culture as it is a “sprint not a marathon” which is true, it is a 4-6 month program but at the same time, if your an adult with a family or a young professional with a social life you get very worn down. Opportunities afterwards are pretty much the same thing so if you’re looking to “accelerate” you’re sales career, apply somewhere else. You’re most likely going to go to another SDR position for an additional 6 months-a year. Therefore you’re starting all over. Not worth it!

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate that you enjoyed the people, training, and office environment. We do feel as though we over explain the sprint mentality during the interview process as we would never want that to be a surprise to anyone. REVGEN by design is a learn fast, grow fast environment. We agree this isn't for everyone, but we do our best to give you clear insight into what the expectations look like while employed with us. We appreciate the advice to management and although we do focus on dials, we also put a ton of focus on how to make those dials meaningful. Not sure where we went wrong with setting this expectation but we will be sure to address with the team. We have many employees who easily balance work and home life which does require a level of time management and focus throughout the day. Additionally our grads will likely agree that starting their career at REVGEN led to better opportunities where because of the training and experience, their career growth was accelerated. Thank you again for the insight and best of luck in the future.
