Pros
- The people that work here are great! I genuinely enjoy working with my colleagues. - This is a great place to learn if you are new to the industry. - Decent benefits - Communication across teams has been improving
Cons
- Outbrain pays the bare minimum - Constant organizational changes are very stressful - Commission goals are set to unrealistic levels - I hit 100% of my goals but am still brought down because of team members that can't hit their goals. Why should I be penalized for other people that I can't even help?! - There are not enough impressions in the system for every seller to hit their goals, which is why they want to keep on sales people who perform poorly so the company can pay each sales person less. - I leave here everyday unmotivated knowing that the hard work that I put in will just be an uphill battle with management/operations to fight for accounts that should count towards my goal. - It is very unclear what you have to do to grow within the company. There are no benchmarks or checkboxes to meet if you are trying to move up within the company. - Advertisers stop working in the platform because there is not enough inventory and prices are becoming too high. - I feel like I don't get reciprocated for the hard work I put in.
