New Business Sales Team
Pros
- Google food perks are unparalleled - Gym on site - Sales cycle is easy with the name Google behind you
Cons
- The perks are there to keep you working longer hours - The commute from SF to Mountain View is from 90mins each way upwards of 2.5 hours - Emphasis solely on revenue even if the deal is not right for the client's needs/budget - Unrealistic quota setting so reps work 10 hour days minimum - Account management team is spread too thin, so clients do not receive adequate support and typically turn off accounts after a few weeks - Management focuses on revenue not their people - Very little product training and no sales coaching at all - Google as a greater company is incredibly hard to navigate and move laterally or upward in, even as an existing employee
