Pros

Most coworkers are nice and well meaning.

Cons

Frequent leadership and organizational changes create a revolving door effect, contributing to canceled projects and an ongoing lack of clear direction. There seems to be a noticeable preference for offshore employees in project assignments, merit increases, and promotions, even though the company is headquartered in the US, which can leave US-based employees feeling undervalued. The change of leadership every few months fosters a chaotic atmosphere marked by shifting priorities. Moreover, financial management raises questions as well; while leadership is often engaged in travel for meetings and conferences, there seems to be reluctance to provide essential resources for our team. Requests for basic tools and small monetary peer awards are frequently declined, leading to challenges in effectively fulfilling our roles.

Pros

-It's a job. -Insurance is good. -People are great to work with

Cons

They're literally just hiring college kids with zero experience. Like, girl, where's the seasoned talent? The "career path" for BDR roles? It doesn't exist, babe. They basically tell you to go find a job somewhere else, unless you happen to be buddies with someone in management—then maybe you'll actually get somewhere. It's giving favoritism. The interview process has them absolutely gassing up how amazing it's going to be. They sell you on this fantasy that's nowhere close to reality. Here's my favorite part: they act like they have this whole polished system set up for their BDRs. You get hired thinking everything's figured out, and then—plot twist—they want you to create a plan because their "process" wasn't anything really.
