Pros
Attractive co-workers, all the La Croix you can drink.
Cons
Because of the rapid growth, young, inexperienced reps (who sold when it was easy) were promoted into management - and are far from capable. These managers are largely not equipped to lead a sales team. Reps are often told they must stay late - often until 8:00 - and come in on weekends. Worst of all, reps are misled about the opportunities in sales. In my interview I was told several large cities they were hiring for. You aren't told what city you'll work on until the end of training. I was given a mid-size city - but told that I could only focus on the outskirts (small, rural areas with no population to speak of). You're evaluated and paid on gross profit, and deals in these areas do not perform well. Therefore, you're only as successful as your accounts. People who started at Groupon early had it made- mediocre sales people don't need to work hard when they can run the same businesses over and over to crush their goals. Goals are not set based on any real logic, either.
