Pros

nothing forms friendships quite as quickly as trauma bonds. Work life balance has been good but that's been my choice. I am constantly asked to do things and preform tasks outside of my normal hours. I just refuse to if i'm not on the clock

Cons

-Pay: The comisson structure is a mess. They keep it all super value and confusing so that if you try to bring up pay issues they can just tell you you didn't understand it correctly and blame you. -From what I can tell BD's are expected to do a job that is normally divided up between several people. We are doing cold calling, Lead sourcing, account managing, website building. It's a mess. It's not that it's too much to do its just that the metric you have to hit do not make sense with what your day to day. Said simply, you're set up to fail. I have never become so jaded about a job so quickly. it's been less than 6 months and i'm pretty done. This is a company run by idiots and they will fail soon unless they get there managers in check, hire trainers, and start treating their employees with respect. I don't care if we have a coffee machine or you get donuts for the office every couple weeks. Pay me what you said you would and i'll be fine. But they can't even do that..... Just don't. It's not worth your time and they'll probably fire you with in the first 2 months anyway.

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
