Pros

This is a remote position.

Cons

SalesRoads hires employees on a "contract" basis, which is not specified during the interview or hiring process. If the client cancels (and they are not under contract), you will lose your job with no warning. Management will say they will "try" to place you on another account, but all accounts are fully staffed. If you are doing well on your account (meaning too much commission), you risk being pulled off that account and being put on another failing account (because "you are so good at what you do"). If your desperate for a job, take it, don't stop job hunting.

SalesRoads DOES NOT hire U.S.-based SDRs on a “contract” basis. U.S. SDR roles are W-2 positions through our PEO. In some countries, different worker classifications may apply based on local requirements, but that is separate from how U.S. SDR employment is structured. On job security, SDR work is tied to active client programs, and SalesRoads is a performance-driven environment. When a program changes or ends, we work to redeploy reps into other openings when there is a mutual fit. With roughly 40 active client programs running at any given time, we are typically able to find a new home for reps who are actively contributing and meeting expectations. In the last six months, there were two instances where redeployment was not possible due to timing and program-fit requirements. It is also not accurate that strong performers are removed from accounts because they earn “too much commission.” High performance is valued and recognized, and program moves are driven by client needs, coverage requirements, and where a rep is most likely to succeed. For additional context, tenure across our SDR population is strong. Approximately 44% of this group has been with SalesRoads for 3+ years, including team members with 9+ years of service. We encourage candidates to read a range of reviews over time and ask direct questions during interviews about employment classification, program stability, ramp expectations, and how redeployment works so they can make an informed decision.

Pros

I can’t say enough pros. Management is beyond great, it has the best management team Ive ever experienced. TDM’s and HR are always thinking of fun things to do, like game day or contest. The understanding you will get from HR is unlike any other company. Also love that you can make your own schedule.

Cons

I really do not have a single one.

Pros

SalesRoads has built a very positive and supportive work environment. The pod structure really stands out, as it encourages collaboration, knowledge sharing, and consistent support from both leadership and peers. There is strong communication across teams, and leadership is approachable, engaged, and invested in employee success. Training and coaching are ongoing, which helps employees continue to grow and feel confident in their roles. It’s a great place to develop professionally while being part of a team that genuinely wants to see each other succeed.

Cons

As with any growing organization, there are occasional updates to systems and tools. However, the company is proactive in improving processes and continues to invest in training and support to help teams stay aligned and efficient.
