Pros

Work from home is a possibility Good for fresh graduates Young working environment Chance to use and learn popular software in the market The workers are nice, but the management is a different story.

Cons

Before you get convinced by the all 5 star review, Read below on the realities and look at their share price for the last 3 years. SLSM and FLSM are there for show. They do not provide you with any strategies. Their job is to grill employees for results. They have no means or industry experts to turn things around. They over-promise to get customers to take up their services but when the results were poor, the SLSM and FLSM goes into hiding. They are also the first company I have seen, that pushed a Business Operations Analyst to take the heat from the customers when they came knocking to get answers for the poor performance. You will not get headhunted frequently by any top tech firms. If you know their business, they are usually the clean up crew. Top tech firms give them money, to do things that they do not want. Usually these are just license renewals work. Which is just order taking. If you happened to be in a sales or business development role, you will work with non lucrative cold accounts given to them by their clients. Every company have a core competencies, something that they are best in, these company's core competencies or rather key to success, lies in their ability to sell dreams and the people they hire to make sure those dreams come true. Basically, the sales folks, renewal folks and the business operations people are their key selling features. Not the management. So you have a chance to work with talented folks but you will be reporting to non-talented folks. Many of their customers (logos as they call them) are leaving them. Says a lot. They are desperately going out to get new logos into the companies. Says a lot. Their ex CEO, Chris Carrington, was the one who started the dream of ServiceSource being the next rocket ship where field sales and key accounts executive are going to extinct and inside sales will be the king of the world. The rocket ship might have run out of fuel prematurely as he left the company without much results to show, without explanation either. Leave it to your imagination.

Pros

Flexi hours, people are free to come and leave any time.

Cons

They let the incapable be managers, the capables remain as rep. After working many years, they are not promoted despite they have proven themselves or have the capabilities to manage. They rather hire some outsiders with inferior qualifications to lead than to internally promote. The good ones who join will leave in a month or two, they saw no future. Only clueless and incapable ones might extend their stay.

Pros

Young and innocent Sales Rep colleagues Nice office environment

Cons

Avoid this Company at ALL COST! Poor work ethic on top management and zero integrity in rewarding deserving Sales Rep. No proper promotion structure for well deserving staffs Super High turnover/attrition on Sales Rep As business model is based on outsourcing, clients can easily take back the business and hire staff from ServiceSource to support the inside sales function themselves.
