Vantaggi

Sales training: some of the best sales training you'll receive in hindsight - boiler room environment. Great for recent grads looking for baseline sales experience but don't stay here too long or you'll get stuck

Svantaggi

Company culture is just drinking Con artist sales pitch - they encourage you to lie / do anything to get the deal done No flexible working

Thanks for taking the time to write a review, it was so positive to read you have gained some great professional sales training during your over three years at GDS, as I am sure you are aware, sales can be a very challenging and competitive environment, especially working with the high level companies we do. To acknowledge your point on "just drinking", lots of great friendships have been formed here at GDS, it can be very social for those who enjoy a night out, team activities, days out etc, I am sorry to hear that wasn't for you and haven taken your comments on board. I do hope during your 3-4 years with us at GDS you have gained some constructive experience you can move forward with into your new role. If you wanted to discuss your points further, I would be happy to hear more feedback and discuss if it would help, HR@gdsgroup.com Wishing you all the very best for the future.

Vantaggi

Met a few good people here, but none of them lasted. Everyone eventually quit or got pushed out.

Svantaggi

This company is a perfect example of how to burn out employees, squander talent, and mismanage a sales org. Team members are often overlooked, talked down to, and treated more like call-center output than actual professionals. My manager consistently interacted with me and others in ways that were discouraging and demoralizing, and it was clear there was little interest in coaching or developing people. The culture feels more like a clique-driven high school environment than a workplace. Turnover is nonstop, and the atmosphere noticeably changes whenever senior leadership is around. KPIs are unrealistic, and the product is genuinely tough to sell in the current market. Hitting quota is rare, many reps only close a couple of small deals the entire year, and the commission structure doesn’t make it any easier. You’re closely monitored from the moment you log in, and by mid-morning you’re already being questioned about your activity. Late hours are common due to rigid activity requirements. Training is minimal, senior reps generally keep to themselves, and asking for help sometimes gets interpreted as not being capable rather than trying to improve. The day-to-day environment is loud, chaotic, and high stress. Headphones aren’t allowed. Standards are enforced unevenly. Some people are given a wide berth, while others are micromanaged over very small things. The culture leans heavily on pressure, constant urgency, and short-term reactions instead of any real long-term strategy or leadership approach. If you care about your mental health, professional development, or actually improving as a salesperson, I’d strongly recommend looking at other companies. Leaving this role was genuinely one of the best decisions I’ve made for my career.
