Pros

- You get out what you put in, I have seen great opportunities, consistently, due to my hard work & effort - Accelerated learning approach to consultative and insight sales cycle - Very loyal alliance of employees, merchants and customers who participate in creating the unique culture - Market Leader in group buying industry comes with great tech tools, scope for future & growing mission - Global company resources and systems - Incentivise commission scheme to support direction of company mission - **People** many mentors, creatives, hard working, focused teams loving what they do every day, however the culture is very different from early start up days when passion was ripe. It is still there, but needs consistent empowerment. - Support is always available to those who ask for it

Cons

- Incredible work load if all the pros appeal to you, you are the master of your own results - High stress, very fast paced, change heavy environment - Development Pathways not clear enough to keep salesforce engaged (however speak up and you will go very far) - Global platform, little control over necessary changes - Remote offices struggle to connect with ANZ HQ - Internal communications can become stifling if time management is not a strength - High expectations for start up mentality when it is no longer a startup environment -- education is required

Pros

-Good place for young talents - does not discriminate based on seniority -Great office culture, friendly people in general -Coworkers are generally quite hard working and willing to go the extra mile

Cons

-Not much personal training - programs do not necessarily help especially since most leaders are quite raw and fresh -Company direction changes way too much - no proper change management put in place, often leaving a lot of chaos -Unless you are aiming for a regional opportunity, not much career growth either
