Pros
Training and experience: the training I’m talking is not the 6 week one, but the ability to learn from other SDR’s around you. All of them selling different companies, so everyone does things a little differently from eachother. The experience comes from them making us put up industry leading KPI’s to satisfy their clients. Meaning I’ve had the ability to talk to a lot of potential prospects and get learning experience from all those.
Cons
- manager turnover: - promote based off metrics and not effort/skill. Management doesn’t care that all campaigns are not the same difficulty. On an easy campaign that might even be inbound? Congrats, you will be promoted (and win academy)over the person who might not hit quota every month, but is busting their butt to even have a chance at it. - they care more about making the clients happy more than the SDRs. Ex) client had unreasonable quota expectations, so they decided to give us unreasonable quotas bc they wanted us to “try” to meet their expectations. There went quota. - And More!!!
