Pros

The product is great. The product marketing team works great on training and marketing materials. The initial on-boarding training all employees go to is really well executed.

Cons

Poor culture overall. When I was in Boston training, I felt like I was in the movie Good Will Hunting, Boston bros and east cost gals. A large majority of the new Denver reps are from Boston, and have a very inclusive group. Unless you are a bro or a size 2 blonde female, they do not want to work with you. The team I was sending leads to did not like me, and hurt my numbers as a result. Last, the lack of resources to be successful in the role requires SDRs to complete several tasks distracting you from quota carrying KPIs. Base pay is low.
