Pros

- Once a month lunch - Cool workplace with high performing individuals - Commission structure is clear and follows through with every deal. - Give you lot of training and can work with managers to unlock your best performance.

Cons

- You're just a number and you feel that way. - Used to have trustworthy relationships with managers, but now they've brought in middle management to micromanage you and watch your every move. They only care about KPI's. - No WFH flexibility at all untill you work your way up to Senior SDR - this is a 6 month sprint at minimum. - Super unhealthy workplace with little to no job security. - People churn out of the company like it's nothing, you'll see a colleague in the morning and by the afternoon they're kicked out.
