I wouldn’t recommend joining this company as an SA/BDR (or AE) for a few reasons:
- Compensation isn’t generous compared to many other tech companies in Boston! Side note for AE’s - Toast recently “experimented” with shrinking territory sizes without telling AE’s or even their managers. Toast brags about how amazing its culture is, but secretly cheating employees of their hard work is unacceptable. If you’re alright with being a lab rat and not being able to make rent or buy groceries, Toast is the place for you!
- A real “frat bro” culture - if you’re not into that, good luck!
- Any concerns aren’t addressed seriously by management! Also, lots of the BDR managers are former BDR’s who only held the job for one year. One year isn’t long enough to develop “world class” management skills.
- Looking to move into a role after this position - compensation isn’t good for internal hires. Moreover, Toast is all about hiring AE’s from outside the company. BDR’s turned AE’s haven’t been performing well for the most part. Good luck getting promoted to AE, spots for internal hires are limited!
