Pros

Only pro is flexibility which you can get in any sales job.

Cons

Constantly having comissions that are rightfully earned not being paid out or having some sort of thousands of reasons why that have to do with system errors or errors beyond sales control. Even having re-planned multiple times and retroactive reduction of comissions earned AFTER THE END of the fiscal year. All your hard earned work just goes to their bottom line so they can make their numbers. Also super shady practices and cheating on financials like signing agreements with companies where the company has no intention of implementing solutions but signs on with loopholes to get discounts on other software. In addition the amount I was offered initially for salary got reduced and they required me to send in my W-2s which I found out later was completely illegal. Such a shady company.

Pros

Decent stock bonuses if you aren't hired during a pandemic

Cons

They literally kill people: fired just before a $800K stock grants are due to vest, a guy committed suicide Extremely toxic and stressful work environment Expected to work 60 - 80 hours a week No recognition of achievements, once you complete one project it's straight on to the next unrealistic deadline

Pros

-Great opportunity for someone fresh out of college with little experience -You're starting with a class of 100s of other people around your age, easy to make friends -Pretty easy to be successful. Most of the class is frat bros/sorority girls who are really there more to socialize and have fun than they are to work. Nothing wrong with that, but if your goal is to be good at your job and make a lot of money you can rank at the top every quarter if you're willing to put in just a little effort. -Honestly really good pay for what is essentially a glorified telemarketing job.

Cons

-Job is not fulfilling at all -Micromanagement -Lack of transparency, KPIs that don't make sense -Constant changes, your job is more about fake metrics (# of calls per day, quick tours) than it is actual sales (creating legitimate opportunities) -Lack of promotion opportunities. A lot of the promotions to move up from BDC look like promotions in title, but actually end up paying less -Training is lackluster. I personally don't feel like I developed many real skills after my first month or two. -Experience will be mostly dependent on what team you end up on. It's completely random. Some products are way easier to sell. Some managers are super chill and others will micromanage you to the death and make you want to find another job immediately.
