Pros

The company is growing like crazy and there's lots of opportunity for someone who's highly motivated to advance their career in sales. It's a fun environment, they run contests all the time and over performance is lucrative. Sales mgmt puts on have end of month celebrations at area restaurants/bars when we hit our number and there's budget for team activities. I started 3 years ago and have been able to more than triple my income in that time. There have also been opportunities to create and add value in ways other than by hitting quota and that's helped me recently transition into a role in sales management.

Cons

There's no bench press in the gym...But seriously, It's a high pressure environment where consistent growth and over performance is expected and you will be held accountable. You're held to a monthly number, so if that's off putting to you this probably isn't the right job. Promotions path on the sales side is very numbers driven with little emphasis put on qualitative elements.

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
