I have had the pleasure of working with GDS International now for 1 year and 2 months. Reading through some the reviews there are many negative things that are said that I do not believe to be true. Though this job is not for everyone the nature of job is a stepping stone to be successful no matter what you do. Depending on your role, its primarily SALES and in this role we are expected to produce. I've been on the chopping block within this organization and have used that as a factor to make me do better. The training is great, the real world experience is second to none it is "The best business school I've never paid for" with tremendous support from all of my colleagues it is an office that lifts each other up as it has for me when I couldn't do it any more. Sure there is turnover unfortunately some were let go and others couldn't handle the reality that the phone didn't dial themselves so they quit, and sure there are things that I don't like but its not unique to GDS International but with every job I've had. If there was better product offering out there I'd be working there and not here, having attended some of our summits they have a product that is truly what they say it is, however it is up to the employees to make the projects we work on flourish. For any of those who read I recommend you follow what your heart tells you and no others - just a word of advice
Svantaggi
As with any job there are things that we dislike with our current employers here is what I say. I'd like to close my own deals instead of priming them up for a Senior Salesperson, Refrigerator is never cleaned I swear some the food there has been than longer than I, I appreciate if other employees would respect existing client relationships, no email/templates on CRM/Outlook, commission brackets Bronze,Silver,Gold I rather get paid a flat commission instead of having to qualify for a higher bracket. Mild micro management.
