Pros

Opportunity to grow with full support and encouragement Open environment, agile team GREAT culture Invests a lot in team, sense of belonging, and career growth Lots of responsibility

Cons

There are no cons if you want to work in sales and make a lot of money. This is a place that rewards you for the hours you put in. Snacks could be improved with more healthy options If you are not a self-starter and a go-getter this might be tough

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.
