      Very poor company to work for

      Sales executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - If you’re young it’s a good social setting - Central location

      Cons

      - Company has a really bad reputation - There is no growth, no management present that has the capability to strength any skills you have. Unless you are fresh out of uni/school and have never picked the phone up before, they’ll teach you a couple of objection handlers to get you started. - It’s very unprofessional in the sense where there’s no structure, everything is based on social acceptance - absolutely no disciplinary procedures in place, 1-1’s, PDP. - They’ve had a few prospects that have threatened legal action, best not to get caught up in that.

      Fire a lot of people without giving them help to succeed

      Sales
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good pay and the product is good

      Cons

      0 marketing leads for sponsors Managers have their own targets so if there are good marketing leads managers would likely keep them Very old school sales methods Salesforce is a mess Everyone calls everyone so prospects are constantly getting cold calls from different team members. Delivery is inconsistent and effects client relationships reducing chances of success. Wouldn't recommend it just because it's such an intensley insecure environment.
