Pros

Young environment seems fun at first.

Cons

No head or tail to anything. Strategy in this company is none existent and the culture condones laziness and mediocrity. Firing people, motivating a mediocre sales force with a sense of entitlement and talking to angry merchants.

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
