Poor Business Development Program - Anonymous employee TierPoint Employee Review

You are given the same list of leads that all of the other BDR's got, and expected to cold call them and set a meeting on the spot. No regard is given as to if they have been called before since these leads are not entered into the CRM. The Boss Man says calling current customers is A-ok. Sorry, but it is not. Little in the way of training. no organization, Poor software that does not work correctly much of the time. And don't even think about advancement from the BDR role despite what you have been told. People have taken this role who come from much higher positions, (even management roles) and have gotten nowhere in this role. The company has mediocre benefits as well. Another bad sign- When you go in to interview, and you are shown around the place, look at all of the company values plastered on the walls as art. They have to do this, since the company itself does not have any values. Also, disregard that the company just received funding. That money will NOT be going into the BDR program, it will be going into building new datacenters.
