Pros

Coming out of college and not knowing where I wanted to be, Mondo was the best choice I made! I knew that I wanted to pursue a career in sales but was unsure where. After having a phone screen with Mondo and being invited to meet the office at a meet a greet- I realized that the environment which Mondo portrays is unlike any other company. Now that I have been working for Mondo for quite some time, I have to say that from the warm welcome I received from my start to the training program, this is the place to be! You start as an ISAM(Inside Sales Account Manager) where you learn the ins and outs of sales and how to be the best you can be. They are constantly trying to improve on this program as well and are more than willing to listen to all and any input to better improve the program. There is a great amount of support for your success and in this environment you're given the opportunity to be the best you can be, and people will listen to your ideas.

Cons

As an ISAM your manager works remote, meaning that you have face time every couple weeks, and although we do conference calls and video chats, and the support is constantly there, I personally feel that it would be more beneficially to have more face time. As the company grows more and more though, I am sure this will happen!

Pros

-Awesome work culture, the entire company are all 20 somethings who like to have a good time. -Benefits are fantastic. Probably some of the best I've ever had. -MK (CEO) of the company has got to be one of the most down to earth people I've ever met. Really easy to talk to and is always open for questions and suggestions. It's too bad I couldn't bring up the issues I had without being shut down by my manager.

Cons

-They hire everyone straight out of college and they treat you that way. The training is hilarious - how to write an e-mail, how to be dress for a job, how to ask a question. If you have work experience, prepare to feel dumbed down and treated like you're a freshman in college. -Management wants you to consistently hit above average. I had my fair share of "above average" weeks when it came to my numbers but the second I would hit "average" my job felt like it was on the line. -Lastly, and one of the BIGGEST issues I had with this company is the fact that they were very adamant about you hitting numbers yet the company schedules ridiculous trainings that take time out of your week and prohibited you from making your numbers. Not only that but they would prohibit you from actually learning with hands on experience from an account director. Example: I wanted to go on a meeting I booked with a CIO, but was unable to because a training about, "how to dress for success" was scheduled.

Sinking Ship

Pros

You get to work in a nice building.

Cons

Imagine the Titanic, except that no one aboard is charismatic or has a British accent. So you're walking aboard this ship that looks really awesome. People are waving at you and smiling and clapping like baboons. You're completely unsuspecting of what you've gotten yourself into. You feel like you're in First Class, but those first 3 seconds/ 3 weeks don't last. That iceberg is coming, and FAST. The same people/ coworkers who smiled in your face are really passive aggressive, pretentious drones that are only smiling because they just received some management gratification for stroking their narcissistic egos with fake compliments and forced positivity via company-wide email chains. And don't even think about being respectful to the other classes on the ship which primarily include your clients or candidates. The bulldog tactics of THREATENING candidates and clients with rescinding offers of employment, incessant phone abuse (try calling someone north of 10 times during any given HOUR, even 9:00 at night), and of course the passive-aggressive threatening of your own position if you go against the grain. You don't feel comfortable bullying clients into making a decision right there and now on your time, or maybe bullying people into accepting jobs the very second an offer comes in? Get ready for some good ol' fashion shaming, pushing and "pep talks" to follow. It's enough to make you want to jump off the side of the ship. And many, MANY people do. I worked at the company for a significant period of time and after putting up with months of seeing co-workers be bullied and sold out by two-faced peers and dim-witted managers, I finally got off the boat. Of course this is after witnessing numerous people get fired or leave, including various managers around the country. Another fair warning, if you don't respect the companies flawed logic on how to execute a respected business, you better get ready for the rockiest ride of your life until you jump or you're eventually thrown off the ship, without a life jacket. Hope you know how to swim. Everything at this company is a joke. If one of your professional values is trusting and respecting management, or taking pride in sales and recruiting, I'd seek out other ships. If you only care about money, I would also look elsewhere because ironically, as much as they pressure clients to close deals, pressuring clients for payment is taboo. Average commission payout time: 4 months plus and standard commission in the industry is about 5-7% HIGHER than here. They will promise you the best trip of your life with amazing perks of sailing with Mondo but don't be fooled by the luster of the boat. This company drained the life out of me for MONTHS. Every day I woke up hating life solely because of a job I was good at and a company that I succeeded within. You came to Glassdoor to check out the company so you must be smart enough to conclude that over half of the reviews on this site are "fake". The first thing the company did when they rebranded from Bluewolf was force their employees to do promotional things like what you see here, as well as vote for "Best Place to Work," etc. Remember, the only "PRO" of this place is that you might work in a nice building... but then again, the Titanic was also a beautiful looking ship... until it sank.
