Groupon reviews

Internal management is terrible. I felt that some sales managers had a great potential to actually help you grow, but they were forced to follow metrics that served as a blanket for the whole sales floor. Also there's a high turnover rate of managers leads to little mentoring for reps. It's typical to have a different manager every 3-4 mos Job security is pretty terrible. "Water cooler chats" are centered around who got fired, what warning level you are at, and what you can do to hit minimums so you don't advance your warning level. This leads to a very negative work environment

Groupon is "generous" and gives you unlimited vacation days. This is a double edged sword. Groupon gives you very little holidays off and discourages you from actually using your unlimited vacation days. They make it very difficult to actually get any time off. Groupon loves micromanagement and feels there is one system fits all. If you are exceeding your contract goals and pacing towards revenue goals, they will hound you for not making enough calls or enough talk time on a daily basis. Pay is very poor. You can't live in Chicago and make $32,500 per year. I was promoted twice while working there and never received a pay raise. Groupon is very good at over working their employees and under paying them.
