Pros

- Good intro sales training - Nice office - Good leadership during intro period

Cons

- Horrible culture and bad vibes - Very high turnover (They churn and burn employees like crazy) - Poor leadership and organization when moving to senior sales floor. I worked here for a period of 6 months and it was highly turbulent. I enjoyed the job at the start, the academy period has engaging and personable leaders to guide you through your training and work days. However, once you move over to the senior sales floor everything seemingly turns on its head. With a change in leadership and they will move you from team to team without regard for where you perform best or your relationship with team members. Negative experience with leadership and co-workers with a frat culture on top of that. Employees quit almost every couple days, and it is clear their business model is built around this churn and burn style of employment. All in all it was a very negative experience, but I do appreciate the sales training I received. I would steer clear of this, it is not worth the headache or impact to your mental health.

Pros

My experience at PHMG has been such a fun and rewarding opportunity, especially for someone with little to no experience in sales. It’s a great place to learn, grow, and build confidence while being surrounded by people who genuinely want to see you succeed. The culture is one of my favorite parts. Everyone is very welcoming and approachable, always willing to answer questions or offer advice. Since it’s a great starting point for someone new to sales, you never feel like you’re figuring things out alone. The team is supportive, and there are so many opportunities to learn from the people around you. I’ve also really enjoyed the networking opportunities and getting to connect with so many different people across the company. PHMG does a great job creating a fun environment where people work hard but also enjoy what they do. Overall, it’s been an amazing place to start a sales career and build a strong foundation. The skills, relationships, and experience you gain here can set you up for success in future sales roles as well.

Cons

none! I loved my time here.

Pros

PHMG is a great place to breakout in a sales role and gain experience. They offer a 15 week training program called the Academy, where you get first hand coaching, product knowledge and training, and dive head first into an SDR role with constant feedback and support. You also get the commission you earn right away, with a lot of potential to earn extra cash and fun events such as President's club. I was able to attend after my first month and they really want you to experience the fun incentives. Once you graduate the Academy they move you over to a team on the senior sales floor where you still receive constant coaching and support. The team environment is motivating and keeps each day exciting. Everyone is always there to lift you up and keep pushing you to succeed. The culture and environment here is like no other and I was lucky enough to find some of my closest friends at this role. Definitely a work hard play hard mentality where we celebrate the small and big wins daily.

Cons

It is a grind, there are going to be hard days where motivation is hard. It is very metrics focused and you will be cold-calling all day everyday. Kind of the typical entry level role that comes with sales.
