Pros

Free Diet Coke and Vitamin Water all day!

Cons

Grab your headset, get ready to call and call and then do some more calling. That's all you will do. The idea of advancement after working for the company for 6 months is a joke, you'll learn this from the disgruntled individuals sitting next to you who have been there for 9 months or a year. You'll probably start off with some warm leads and then just start cold calling like crazy. I was placed into a market that had already been called on for 2 years by 9 other people. If you want to work in telemarketing, this is a great gig. If you want to be part of a startup, offer input and help develop any sort of useful strategies, you'll be thoroughly disappointed at Groupon.

Pros

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Cons

Management doesn’t care about you. Unrealistic goals. Everyone at 30-40% of quota. Complicated quota attainment system. Your job is to ask for 70% of margins for small businesses that have only 10-15% margin budgets
