Pros

Great team, encouraging team leads, decent benefits, WFH

Cons

Pay is very low. People in industries like insurance or financial advising who start off with 0 and build their book over time know what they’re doing getting into it. Maybe they live with their parents or have someone to help them feel supported. After the tough beginning they can reap benefits. Here, it’s a combination of grit and luck. Your pipeline resets quarterly. The pipelines are usually old and are hit non stop by people and rotated through. I respect the hustle of calling someone, but if after “x” amount of calls you’re not getting someone, you move on and come back down the road. The amount of micromanagement and systems that are in place in order for you to get your records is completely unnecessary. We do 2 weeks of training we might as well learn an efficient way to run a pipeline where the management can trust us to not burn through every single lead instead of this mess that ends up burning leads anyway. Maybe then more people would be hitting the “big” numbers which is 65k+ and depending on where you live that may just seem average. This company also has a *subject to change vibe and they exercised that several times while I was there

Pros

There's some nice benefits, like ClassPass credits, good insurance, and remote.

Cons

First and foremost, if you're a POC, you need to stay far away from this place. There is absolutely no diversity, and majority of the sales org, including the leaders, are white women. The managers lack skill, and don't know how to sell or manage. They only became managers because of their connections or because they were there in the early days of ClassPass and stayed long enough to get promoted. Nothing based on merit or skill. The sales culture is very churn and burn. The retention rate is so low, and this company is like a revolving door. You become a "veteran" or senior employee if you have worked there longer than 4 months. They have extremely unrealistic goals for the sales org, and the leads are awful. And it's because the company is terrible, and doesn't invest in partner services or support, so gyms and salons tend to have a bad experience because the resources and support they have for them are abysmal. Not to mention the bad reputation that ClassPass has; if you call a lead that has been called before, you will get extremely frustrated owners. They will tell you that ClassPass reps are harassing them by constantly calling, but that is what you are taught to do as a rep. To wrap it all up, there is no diversity, incompetent leaders, and bad reputation.
