      Pros

      I joined GDS with some trepidation, as I’d never worked in a corporate environment before, but after working here for some months I’ve found it to be a really friendly and down to earth workplace and have no regrets. It’s easy to talk to management if you have a problem and the admin team work really hard to make you feel a part of the company. As for the sales side, the enthusiasm of the office is catching and it’s not difficult to get caught up in the excitement when someone makes a deal. Great team-work and support is always around!

      Cons

      Sometimes difficult to concentrate amidst the buzz of pitching in an open plan office

      Pros

      I joined GDS 17 years ago and what excited me immediately when I joined, were the career progression opportunities, the training, remuneration and culture. After working in various offices around the world with like minded individuals, I can safely say I have enjoyed every single minute here

      Cons

      Not a role for everyone. If you willing to work hard and have an ambitious nature you can carve out a very quick career path for yourself and move quickly up the ladder

      Fun company culture with lack of transparency.

      Pros

      There is room to make sizable commissions. The company takes out employees for 'team building' every couple months, aka parties. Good summer hours and European holiday schedule is quite nice, along with MUFTI (casual dress days). Training is also pretty in-depth.

      Cons

      The means by which GDS employees have to generate leads is unethical. Using fake names, numbers and insane tactics to contact CEOs is actually one of the more fun aspects of the job, but can make it difficult to look yourself in the mirror some days. The starting base salary is laughable in most cases. Some employees are great workers and generate most of the revenue, while a large portion of the office does absolutely nothing all day.
