Not what it once was

Pros

-Staff in Chicago, sales and otherwise, are likeminded, young and hungry for the most part -Niche opportunities to make some serious money with hard work

Cons

-Management turnover/objectives changing monthly -Trial and error with sales comp plan; no consistency -The employees who were champions of the product have largely been forced out -Direct from COO- "We're here to appease stockholders, then merchants, then customers, then employees. Before they went public, this was hands down THE place to work in Chicago. Now it's a grind to move the stock price up pennies at a time, with no consideration for the long-term effects.

Dress code. good office location Not much else

Shocking management. Incredibly poorly run sales force, mainly run by muppets who have little interest or care for their employees. Toxic environment, huge staff turnover.

Mistake to accept this job

Recommend
Business Outlook

Pros

Laptop, Iphone. Opportunity to make decent commission during ramp up period.

Cons

No communication. The inside sales team is the focus of the sales force. Very little opportunity for new employees. Completely remote, very little direct contact with management. Poorly structured sales organization from an outside perspective. Small commissions, scattered leads with no defined territory. Not able to support more than 1 or 2 successful sales people per market. Only 3 out of about 12 hit quota. 100% turnover in less than a year.
