Pros

I honest to god can't think of any.

Cons

Obviously management is freaking out about the bad recent reviews starting in January and through May, so they asked employees to write great reviews about them which all magically appeared on and around June 26th. This is an example of a con- they are just con artists all around, with their sales tactics, recruiting tactics, and everything in between.

Pros

I have been working at GDS Group over 1.5 years and it has been the best decision I have made. Reason being, this place is how you develop and sharpen real sales skills, with the opportunity to make big money. I want to say this is the Navy Seals training of sales. The culture doesn't get any better, great people, ambitious, and potential for earnings is high.

Cons

If you need to be micromanaged this isn't the place for you

Pros

Since I started at GDS, it has been a great experience for me. If you invest yourself in the business, they will invest in you. The skills you gain, the network you're able to build and the commission potential are amazing. If you're looking for an opportunity to become a great sales person, develop skills to differentiate yourself in the market and immerse yourself in c-suite environment, GDS is the spot for you.

Cons

I'm not sure if this is a con, but you have to work hard to do well. Success won't be handed to you here.

Thank you for your positive feedback. Communication is key and we don't want anyone to feel left out in Bristol, New York or Miami. We are working on our internal newsletter, chatter groups in Salesforce and a new content hub that will be launched shortly to keep everyone in the know. If you have any further recommendations for improvement please don't hesitate to contact the HR/Recruitment team.
