Pros

A handfull of good people

Cons

Meltwater is the kind of organisation that slowly manipulates you into believing everything is your fault. It’s only when you leave and join a normal company that you take a deep breath and think -What on earth was I doing there? The leadership is genuinely awful, I’d go as far as saying borderline bullying. The product constantly breaks, yet you’re repeatedly told the issues are down to you. The blame culture is relentless... I honestly cannot stress this enough- please avoid this company at all costs. Everyone I know who worked there has struggled with their mental health because of how little the organisation cares about its employees.

Pros

The product is cool and if properly onboarded customers will get value from it. Coworkers are fairly social If you are new to sales would be a good place to learn the basics

Cons

Probably the cheapest company I have ever worked for. Benefits are below standard, they changed the commission plan every year I was there so that you would make less money, and you are expected to share hotel rooms when you travel. Look up Meltwater on Reddit or LinkedIn. They are known for very aggressive sales tactics which you will be forced to implement on your customers. A culture of micromanagement that comes from the top down. Virtually no avenue for promotion unless you are willing to move or get lucky and someone leaves.
