Pros

Too much cons to even consider to share any pros

Cons

- crazy micromanagement: Felt dystopian to a certain extent (writing hour by hour what you are doing, summaries of achievement every week plus extensive documentation of tasks Progress in Asana), you feel like you have to constantly explain all the time what you are doing and why it is taking this amount of time - mean CMO, saying things like „I am sorry not sorry for being not nice to you guys”, pushing people too hard, toxic, dysfunctional behaviour - I feel lately that my manager is like „kapo” in the concentration camp - this is of course kind of a metaphor and exageration but somehow it has started to come to my mind during interactions with her - generally: toxic, exploiting people, extremely frugal (lately they asked employees in Warsaw office to unpack the dishwasher, at the same time office is filthy, computers - old and crashing) - to few people to do the job which results in mess, lack of documentation you can rely on

It was good until it wasn’t

Pros

Uncapped commission, great benefits -health, leave, 401k

Cons

Leadership has no clue what they are doing. They throw ideas at the wall and go with it. People who are calling one city, four states or all states all have the same goal. They took away creativity and strategy and micromanage

Well, they’re hiring

Pros

They were hiring when no one else was.

Cons

Where to start? The pay is extremely low and commission is laughable. You’re worked to the bone to no return. The process is horrid, if you do make it out of what they call training, you’re still walking the plank every single week! This is the most unprofessional company I’ve worked in and I can see why people act the way they do: it’s allowed! If you have other options, take the other one! If it weren’t for the cruddy job market, Groupon would not have anyone willing to apply here!
