Pros

You are surrounded by loads of people very similar to yourself and can leverage their skills to really make yourself the best salesman possible. You You'll get to work with the major high-tech trending technologies such as data storage, cyber, cloud, etc.. and be prepared for the next level

Cons

If you get put on a PPM client, you're screwed. They don't put any effort into the firm and the reps on the accounts are literally booking meetings for no purpose. Aside from that, depending on client turnover, you can make it through your entire memoryBlue tenure without ever earning a raise or receiving a bonus - and at their salary, it is not enough to live off of. The culture has steadily gone downhill to where their "alumni" program isn't even a sought after achievement, most of the SDRs I worked with wanted to get out of the door by any means necessary after 3-6 months

Thanks for posting your anonymous feedback in this forum. The SDR role at memoryBlue is without question a tough and highly rewarding opening into the world of high tech sales – a very difficult world to crack into. We’ve had a hand in placing over 200 Alumni in that sales world so far and that number is going up every year. In fact, we’re currently posting a series of interviews with some of these standout sales pros on our blog highlighting how valuable their careers in this profession have been (and what starting at memoryBlue meant to those careers). The training, experience, knowledge and skills our early-career professionals receive carries incredible value as our employees launch into this space for good. Blaming a lack of sales success on bad luck is certainly anyone’s right, but it would seem hard to believe that a rep was expecting raises and hefty bonuses when their performance led to high client turnover (which sounds like was the case for you). Maintaining a focus on employee growth and business growth go hand-in-hand here and we are proud to do both at all times. We do hope you’ll stick with sales and find a place where you can work hard and hustle. In this profession, you’ll make or break your career based on the effort and commitment you’re willing to put in.

Pros

- Good Sales Training - Good Company Culture, Everyone wants to learn and help - Good Managers will be able to provide great coaching to help further grow your skills

Cons

- Your success is highly dependent on what client they give you. If they give you a hard client, do not expect to see those bonuses come in frequently. - Managers are also another luck of the draw. Started off with a great manager, who'd always be willing to help and coach. But then transitioned to another manager who was about my age, not very competent at coaching or advice since he had only been on an easy client for 6 months before being promoted, and would micromanage the team very hard. If you get a bad manager + a hard client, you will not have a good time at memoryBlue since they are already expecting you to work hard. - Pay and the bonuses are very low. Whether or not you'll see a raise is dependent on what client you get whether since it's based on hitting quota an X amount of times.
