Vantaggi

Perceived support Wellness and creative Fridays Was focused on Black and Brown ppl breaking into tech A big family

Svantaggi

One day (out of nowhere - literally), the CEO pivoted from a mission driven company that was founded to support black and brown people break into tech to a SaaS product (that no one wants to buy) because it was too hard (lol) - typical privileged Ivy Leaguer - there's literally no more tech sales bootcamp. CEO just laid off my team because of $$, yet offered me and everyone else a bonus and larger salary right after he came back from a lavish trip...disgusting. Privileged bootcamp teachers and trainers can't relate to most of the students due to their white fragility Horrible supports for ppl from underrepresented backgrounds once they're placed in a tech company - how do you even pivot then this happens Too much leaning on 1-2 token people to uplift the brand This is the WeWork or Fyre Festival of the ed tech world - horrible leadership w/HUGE egos Lies lies lies - a TON of them

Vantaggi

Our CEO is a truly people first leader with a very high EQ. The broader team has a super tight connection across all teams, and everyone is firing on all cylinders. The tech takes a unique approach to helping modern GTM teams up-level execution and as a former sales rep, leader and GTM exec, it's clear there is a major opportunity ahead. We also offer competitive pay, benefits and as we're rapidly growing, you'll find an environment focused on coaching with upward career mobility.

Svantaggi

We're a startup and naturally that drives a lot fast paced, multi-hat wearing responsibilities. That's not for everyone

Vantaggi

I was looking to change the industry that I worked in. I have worked in sales for about 19 years now, never in tech. Flockjay gave me the skills and foundation for tech sales to build on what I knew. -10-week program / M-Th / 3 hrs a night 5-8PST I had no issue with the course changing the format from 12 weeks to 10 weeks. As working professionals desiring to get jump-started in a new career, the more compact and efficient the program, the better. -Learning from current leaders in the industry The program is training for a Sales Development Representative. The instructors have all been in this role previously, and are able to deliver the ins and outs of what is expected of the role and how to perform at the highest degree. -Insightful Fireside Chats Talks with Tech industry professionals, giving you an inside look to their career trajectories and how you can grow your career into what you want it to be. -It's a lot of work. Take it seriously. You get out what you put in. -Knowledge to hit the ground running. Just like in any job transition, nothing falls into your lap. However, you are equipped with the tools to conduct an efficient job search and position yourself as a desirable candidate. I received an offer within a month of graduating.

Svantaggi

-Outcomes/ Job Placement was slow in communicating This is one of the most important things on everyone's mind when starting the program. Having an idea of how the process works from the beginning will assist in managing everyone's expectations.
