Pros

Interesting platform, should work if they had the right guiding principles.

Cons

You will be asked to lie to every prospect you talk with. You will have to record them without their knowledge, so every word you utter will be reviewed by managers that haven't sold the platform themselves. The prospects initially think you are doing research, you most certainly are not. You will be told they have over 130 active customers, they have around 40. You will be micro managed to the point you want to go postal.

Pros

You will be held, relentlessly, to a standard of excellence. I list this as a Pro, but many folks I've worked with (even here at Surprise HR) would consider it a Con - I do not fault anyone for having this belief, I just don't share it. It is refreshing to come to work every day and strive to be better than yesterday, knowing you won't be quite good enough to make tomorrow easy. For those of you reading this that have excelled in your past or current organization and reached a pinnacle you can appreciate the value of this quality in a workplace - no complacency, no room to get sloppy, and no feeling that your peers aren't working as hard as you. In line with the above are the people you get to work with. It is a rare individual who can succeed in the kind of environment we've built here. Most people would (or have) become frustrated at the constant pursuit of perfection - I am inspired by it. I liken it to working out - you'll never be fit enough to make tomorrow's workout easy, but it is the struggle that fuels your determination to find the next level. To that extent I think of Surprise HR as a gym for my career. If you spend enough time here you'll achieve things you never thought possible in a timeframe others won't believe...and then you'll do it again and again and again.

Cons

It can be difficult to see talented individuals fail to step up to succeed here. An unwavering definition of achievement can and has left people, good people, behind.
