Pros

- Free Snacks. However, they forgot to even order the new hires our "Free Lunch" on the first day. Management was more concerned about ordering their own food. - Dress Code. You want to wear sweat pants to work? Go right ahead!

Cons

- Toxic Culture - Poor Leadership - Demanding Schedule - High Expectations - Unprofessional - Glass Ceiling This wannabe "Wolf of Wall Street", "bro" type of office offers no career advancement and urges you to stay complacent. Touted as a "Software Sales" company, FieldEdge will have you making upwards to 100 phone calls a day with little to no recognition. You will be peddling "software" that the customer does not want nor understand. FieldEdge targets companies that are small enough to be using pen and paper to be successful, while trying to shove their app down the customers throat. If you are lucky enough to convince someone to purchase this software, the compensation does not match the effort needed to be successful. Be ready to accept verbal abuse over the phone and a "you'll get em next time, just keep dialing" form of support from leadership. The managers always try to promote "good vibes", but they are just happy because they aren't the ones making the calls. There is a real reason why the reviews of this company are so low, ignore the positive ones, those are just the reviews the company forces new employees to conduct on the first day of work. This border line call center company is a real life Fyre Festival full of management that think they are more important than they really are.

We always appreciate feedback and apologize that you found your time with FieldEdge less than ideal. We do want to take a moment and address some of these items to ensure there is a fair depiction of FieldEdge, most importantly the culture, career advancement and value of our solutions. FieldEdge provides an end-to-end solution for an underserved market when it comes to software. The value we offer is to remove laborious tasks that result from operating a business using pen & paper. Over 10,000 members depend on FieldEdge to run and improve their businesses, and we’re proud to serve them. Some of the things I’m most proud of at FieldEdge are the coaching, development and career advancement opportunities we offer our employees. Our core values reflect making a difference in our customers’ lives as well as our coworkers’. Each new teammate receives thorough onboarding, weekly meetings/training with their manager and a manager whose sole focus is their success. We do not subscribe to a specific sales methodology, rather we take elements from methodologies like SPIN, Selling Above and Below the Line, and Challenger then apply it to our industry. I’m proud to share that 10 SDRs have been promoted or transitioned to departments across the business in the last 3 months. I also want to address the comments about our culture because culture is something we care deeply about and try to protect at all costs. We strive to be inclusive and provide a work environment where people can succeed. We regularly celebrate our wins and we push each other to improve. In no ways do we want to be identified as “Wolf of Wallstreet”, and we certainly do not teach employees to be deceitful, manipulative or disrespectful. We could not be successful if that is our strategy for customer acquisition. 50% of our customers are on month-to-month contracts and our customer retention stats are above benchmarks for software companies. We’re extremely proud of the business and culture we’ve built.

Explor Ever since Explor was purchased by a PE firm, every aspect of the company to the most granular detail has effectively gone up in flames. For anyone who needs context, PE firms are parasites that steal exorbitant amounts of money from the companies they buy out - and then they have 26 year old matcha drinking ‘financial associates’ in some high rise in NYC make pivotal business decisions that negatively affect hundreds of employees’ lives all because they learned in an MBA class that making the ‘costs’ line in the Excel spreadsheet go down would make the ‘profit’ line go up. The first ‘strategic’ business decision made was to cut down on software developers (to make the ‘profit’ line go up in Excel), which has resulted in a WORSE product - then they hiked the price on customers (Again, to make the ‘profit’ line go up in Excel) which as anyone would have expected, enraged ALL our customers. The resultant employees who didn’t abruptly leave are now tormented daily with more and more ignoramus ‘strategic’ business decisions and treated like ants that a child is playfully burning alive with a magnifying glass. If you want to be treated with any human dignity whatsoever, Explor will not be a good fit for you. However, if you want every day at work to feel like you are a participant in the Stanford Prison Experiment while simultaneously having to take calls at all hours from every customer who wont stop asking “Why does the software I pay money for to run my business no longer work”, Explor will be the perfect future employer for you to take that big next step in your career.
