Pros

Easy interview, comradery, pingpong table.

Cons

This company is not the best place to start out your career in tech sales period. The pay is abysmal, the management is startlingly to that of fraternity/sorority leadership. Hitting quota is often not very attainable and when you look at it objectively, is not even worth the bonus. Which at most result in a monthly increase of $180 gross... I routinely heard one of the recruiters tell non seekers that people are making around $70k a year after bonuses which is absolutely a bald faced lie. I knew people who hit quota 12 times and made no where close to that. Now one of the five paths is to go internal and work for MB, which I thought would protect you from the incredibly rigid metrics. However, they make you sign a 2 YEAR contract and non compete. I also first hand witnessed managment fire an employee with absolutely no cause. Because it's run like a frat house there is no HR and as long as you're hitting quota you can do WHATEVER YOU WANT no matter how vial, unprofessional, or just unethical it is and trust me people do! Also that $5K "training fee" is complete nonsense and they make people pay it if they don't like then and the ones that they do, they let it slide and make you not tell anyone about it. Also if they find out that you're looking for other jobs they will try to intimidate you/or terminate you immediately. The culture there also promotes a lot of backstabbing and gossip so SDR's will inform on people who they think are not "loyal".

Pros

Honestly, I’m really struggling with this one. There were some nice people but I was remote so communication with the team was minimal.

Cons

MemoryBlue is a failing company. The leadership knows it, the employees know it, and the customers feel it. Their model is outdated and they are being beat by cheaper better options. MB pretends to be the “white glove” of SDR outsourcing but that’s largely regarded as a joke internally. The company is dead set on not adapting. Their sales tools are outdated, the tech stack is laughable and the executive leadership is MIA (aka the co founders). To use the term “adapt or die” memoryblue has chosen death. I’m so embarrassed to have worked here, to the point I’ve removed it from my resume. In doing so I noticed a sizable uptick in outreach from recruiters. To all the AE’s reading this, you already know how bad it is. If you’re an AE considering working here, run. To all the SDR’s reading this, go be an SDR anywhere else. Trust me, MB is doing no favors for your career in the long run.

Pros

After reading over these reviews it looks like management is leaving these 5 star reviews.

Cons

We know what MemoryBlue does. They offer SDR services for clients, over promise - under deliver. "But our training is world class" No it's not. Your metrics of 100 calls and just aimlessly pounding the phones isn't working. Try to actually train people on the technologies they are selling. People want to buy from credible sales people who actually provide good technology that will benefit their business. Try training young SDR's on that. You don't compensate anyone well. How dare you ask for $5,000 back? California is at-will employment. Nobody should ever take that threat seriously and give you any money back. Peace!
