Pros

I see very few pros working there...

Cons

Working at Groupon turned out to be the worst experience in my career. This company's primary focus is on cutting costs, aiming to pay employees as little as possible while expecting them to generate maximum revenue. They are currently undergoing a significant restructuring phase, resulting in a substantial number of layoffs. As an employee, you feel undervalued, merely a means to boost their profits, then, they'll terminate your employment without any compassion. HR lacks empathy and fails to support the well-being of employees. The training and process systems in place are incredibly overwhelming, with the use of Google Sheets, which proves to be inefficient and time-consuming. Furthermore, the company culture does not foster a welcoming atmosphere; existing employees tend to keep to themselves rather than assisting newcomers. In conclusion, I strongly advise against applying or working for this company.

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
