Pros

-Free food, high compensation for new grads, friendly like-minded people in Sales, you can learn a lot about digital marketing and start ups if that's something you're interested in. BrightEdge is continuing to follow the path of profitability and sustainability without additional funding. They have a good grasp on their competition and fight for every deal. The sales culture can teach you incredible work ethic, communication skills, and how to be assertive. They have some impressive existing customers that do like the technology.

Cons

Majority of EBRs never hit monthly quota, Uneven distribution of accounts between reps & territories, no analysis of Ideal Customer Profile in CRM (junk accounts that have no need or budget for SEO). Stock options/plan is worthless except for executives. No 401k Match. Very high turnover, most people leave or are managed out in less than a year.

Your review is noted and we appreciate the feedback. The nature of our EBR (Demand Generation) teams is the same at similar organizations in the Sales space. We love to hire new college grads for these roles, but that means the turnover is often high because the role is not for everyone. We have developed an in-house playbook that is unique to BrightEdge. You will be very successful if you follow it. Those who do not historically do not meet monthly quota and are usually unsuccessful here. As we mature and grow and become more successful as a company our benefits will increase. 401k matching is not common for a Pre-IPO start-up. We are still a late stage start-up and reward successful employees with meaningful stock options the more you are successful here. Once again, thanks for the feedback, we take it very seriously. Good luck with you new ventures.

Pros

-Opportunity is abundant. BrightEdge is willing to challenge high performing with new opportunities in management, spearheading new departments, and opening new offices. -Promotion is based on performance: you always know how you're doing and what you need to do to get better -Product is truly industry-leading, and the vision of the executive team is rock solid. I'm confident their leadership will continue to drive the company forward -Culture is a great balance of focus and fun.

Cons

-Still some "growing pains" as the company continues to grow and expand. Communication between departments, offices, teams has improved drastically since I started, but can definitely get better still

Pros

The job is all about your performance. If you hit your goals, you move up, you get promoted. It's as simple as that. You get great exposure to the top execs and there are numerous opportunities to move up in. Yes, the role can be tough but there is great a support system in all offices. Everyone is very open to helping. Great money to be made. Quick path to move up.

Cons

It's a very fast-paced environment-- if you have a hard time adjusting to this, then this isn't the job for you.
