Pros
*Helping other businesses is fun. I prefer working with businesses instead of working with residential clients which I did at AT&T *The Nextiva product is needed for businesses and it works well. If I don't close a deal it's not because the business is not going to use phones anymore. *Training is a pro and con. It helped me a lot and got me ready for this job. But I don't believe there's enough training and there can be more one on one training. *Everyone in the company is approachable. *The office is a 25 minute drive for me. Total. Back and forth. *There are more fun stuff here than anywhere I've worked. Food, ice cream, company party, dress up days *Nextiva donates money to nonprofits. I respect how they do this *Support is in the same building as sales
Cons
*AE's turnover more than they should. Nextiva is probably average in this category *There's a performance imbalance. Some AE's perform well and make a lot of money and the rest are average or even below. It does get frustrating for me when I see leads that I can close go to account executives that are too new or bad at what they do. *Competition is always trying to punch us and their sales people bad mouth us. *The words and lingo is not simple and there are lots of competitors to keep tabs on.
