Pros

There are no meaningful pros. Some colleagues are friendly but that is the only positive.

Cons

Culture, constantly shifting KPI's, unrealistic expectations, and leadership that avoids accountability. Management creates unrealistic salary expectations during the interview process and exagerates earning potential, not even 10% reach OTE. The role is really a junior SDR role, leadership is disconnected from day to day challenges and focus on outbound activities to protect themselves. You are constantly pushed and taught new methods to contact and pressure clients execessively to compensate from the declining business model of Conferences. Constant demands to do more work each week for less, extremely high staff turnover (except management) and absolutely no career progression.

Pros

Work life balance and learning.

Cons

If you’re hoping to grow based on merit, look elsewhere. The management here is dysfunctional at best. Promotions aren’t earned—they’re handed out based on friendships and favoritism. You can exceed every target, take on extra responsibilities, and still be overlooked if you’re not part of the inner circle. It’s a toxic culture where loyalty to individuals matters more than results or integrity. Disheartening for anyone who values fairness and hard work. And if you are not white American even worst.
