Vantaggi

Competitive pay and low expectations

Svantaggi

I was literally handed my equipment and told to figure it out. I was selling iPad POS systems as a part of their latest acquisition of Breadcrumb. The travel arrangements were unorganized and did not make sense (they put me in a hotel across town from the office and scheduled flights so close together I missed my connection, and were completely hostile in their communication with me regarding this). After almost no training, I returned back to where I would be selling, never met my manager who completely ignored my requests to set up a 1 on 1 call with him. There was no follow up and training after throwing equipment at me for 3 days in New York. I tried to make the job work for a little bit but I was not given the territory where I lived, so I had to drive over an hour to a territory that was tiny. I found out very fast the only restaurant who would buy the system is a new restaurant unsure about their long term viability. I was left scrambling to find a new job or go back to the one I left. I found a new job within the first month I was hired there and got out as fast as I possibly could.

Not many cons. People are really cool.

Vantaggi

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Svantaggi

Management doesn’t care about you. Unrealistic goals. Everyone at 30-40% of quota. Complicated quota attainment system. Your job is to ask for 70% of margins for small businesses that have only 10-15% margin budgets
