Thanks for your feedback, disappointing to hear you find the job straightforward and unfulfilling at this time. I note you have worked at the company for a few years so please reach out to a lead manager to discuss your feelings. I am sure we can help. Exploiting people is far from what GDS ethos is built on, let discuss, I would like to support, email HR@gdsgroup.com. Thanks

Pros

This is a company with a can-do attitude, a professional approach to selling that no matter where you are in your career, you can learn and develop. Company culture and performance improvement is truly the most exciting place I have ever worked (20 year career). Highly experienced leadership and management teams, driving new product launches and remaining agile in critical moments. Sales teams incentive plans and prizes are industry leading. The business is going through a hyper growth period and it's exciting to be a part of that growth journey.

Cons

With event's it is never black and white!
