      Vantaggi

      gives you good skills in cold calling and working with the tech stack. (worked in their sponsers team, and learned about the industry) some-what friendly co-workers free snacks, and coffee

      Svantaggi

      terrible base pay ($15 per hour), and the commission structure is unrealistic and not consistent with what the majority of salespeople are performing to. you can outpace a managers ote here with a starting role in a typical tech bdr company. high employee attrition terrible time off, and vacation time - not up to the industry standard This role is more like high-pressure telesales than your typical business development environment in technology.

      It is unfortunate that you feel this way about your experience with us. Our Business Development Executive role is a base salary + commission structured position. Our base salary is on a sliding scale and as you book business, your base salary increases. The compensation breakdown is thoroughly explained throughout the interview process at multiple points. This is an inside sales environment and you need to be selling in order to truly benefiting from the structure we have in place. We could not be more transparent that this is a telephone sales environment. Clearly a telephone sales job with a commission heavy pay structure is not something that works for you and we hope you find something that is a better fit. Yearly, we offer 10 vacation days + 5 personal days + 5 paid Covid days (in the event you are sick with Covid) + paid time off to receive updated vaccines + paid holiday break between Dec 25 - January 1. This is well-beyond industry and Ontario standard.

      Vantaggi

      Great place to learn the inter workings of high level commerce. Advanced sales, positive culture, everyone is all hands on deck from the CEO on.

      Svantaggi

      Relentless fast tempo coupled with a constant high level of intensity can be draining.

      Vantaggi

      • Great for building an entry-level sales résumé; the sheer call volume will develop persistence and phone skills quickly. • Exposure to full sales cycle experience, which can help when applying to other sales roles. • Fast-paced environment where you’ll learn discipline in outbound sales. • Some genuinely good people and colleagues who support each other in a tough environment. • Low barrier to entry: They will hire candidates with little to no experience, which makes it easy to break into sales.

      Svantaggi

      • Low base pay (35K CAD) for full-cycle responsibilities; many BDR roles pay significantly more for less pressure. • Misleading OTEs: • Promised commissions are based on USD prices, but you are paid in CAD at face value without proper conversion. • Example: Selling a $3,000 USD pass (30% commission) should be ~$1,200 CAD, but you only get $900 CAD. • Most tickets sell for $500 USD or less, making real commission much lower than expected. • High turnover and low quota attainment; the sales floor changes every 3–6 months. • Unpaid lead sourcing: You must source your own leads but are not allowed to do it during work hours. This eats into personal time and destroys work-life balance. • Micromanaged and script-based: Calls are strictly scripted, leaving little room for creativity or strategy. • Toxic pressure culture: Taking vacation or missing targets can make you feel guilty, and some managers block internal moves to other teams. Message to anyone considering this company: Generis can be a short-term stepping stone to get experience in high-volume, full-cycle sales. If you join, go in with your eyes open: expect a grind, protect your work-life balance, and use the experience to springboard into a better-paying, more sustainable sales role.

      Since the time this person was with the business, we’ve increased the starting base salary for our Sales team, with clear, structured opportunities to further raise base pay based on performance and milestone achievements. Candidates have the opportunity to fully understand the role and its expectations before accepting the position and we are very transparent about these requirements. Like most full-cycle sales roles (not just at Generis) success in sales requires a mindset that goes beyond a traditional 9–5 schedule. Adopting this approach is key to achieving strong results and maximizing your own earning potential. Our current team members are consistently meeting (and often exceeding) their monthly sales targets, reflecting both the strength of our training program and the strong earning potential in this role. We also prioritize promoting from within. Consistent high performers are given quick advancement opportunities into people management or account management positions, allowing them to build leadership skills and expand their career trajectory within Generis long term. Thank you for your review and best of luck in your future endeavors.
