Pros

Get to meet a lot of cool friends who are also getting into the industry. Good introduction to cold calling.

Cons

They have a lengthy contract they make you sign and hide that if you are not their for a year you have to pay you signing bonus back. They pay well below the industry standard and the bonus for hitting quota is not that much. They set monthly quota attainments very high and the top performers are the only ones who hit it. They offer you a 3K holiday after 15 months but you have to pay it all yourself before getting reimbursed. Management is very young and does not know how to handle the amount of SDRs and clients they are managing. The company recently was sued for not recording hours for their employees. The CEOs laughed it off and said it was not a big deal. They also do not value their employees and instead of raising wages they are looking to open new offices in cities with the highest cost of living such as New York. All their offices are in cities that are top 20 in cost of living, most being in the top ten such as Seattle, Boston, Washington DC and San Jose. You do not get sick days as well, they make you use your PTO. Much better companies to work for if your looking to get into sales. Take my advice and stay away.

Pros

-You learn the BARE MINIMUM of sales -You will often work with cool people as everyone got lured in by the same empty promises made by the recruiters -You have the slightest chance of getting hired out by a better company (because every client of memoryBlue has realistic expectations for their SDRS) -The work is brainless once you figure out how to fly under the radar

Cons

-Brainless production for the sake of "Hustle" -The pay is terrible, work here if you live rent free (most do because they prey on naïve college kids that are just looking for a job after they graduate) -The Hustle score system ensures that you are held accountable for dialing 500+ dials a week and booking an appointment with whoever has a pulse -There is no incentive to go above and beyond, don't fall for the fancy vacations and night-outs to drink/party (Because once you're fired, they're going to ask for all the money spent on you back) -Clients of mB are often over promised and under delivered, don't believe the hype of our high volume demands of daily dials -Management is young and are just obedient foot soldiers to higher authority

Pros

Opportunity for young/new sales people to break into tech at an entry level Top 10% of the company gets decent rewards/ benefits

Cons

- they make SDR’s sign year long contracts that are binding with a $ amount you pay back if you leave - Literally everything not listed in the above review - young/ inexperienced managers for SDR’s - lack of established processes to help reps succeed -Constant moving parts and inconsistent planning by leadership - ineffective training due to lack of uniformity - Comp plans/ quotas are typically only beneficial for top top performers
