Vantaggi

Great culture, a lot of young people.

Svantaggi

Management is completely unorganized. Be prepared if you are in sales because this job is all cold calling to businesses that we either worked with in the past and they had a horrible experience or they are business that have never worked with Groupon and do not ever want to. However, they have been contacted a dozen times already by several different reps and just do not want to be bothered anymore yet we keep calling. It seems that the Groupon market is pretty saturated and it is a model that only works for businesses that have little to no variable costs (museums, zoos ect). I would honestly feel guilty when setting up deals for companies when I new it was going to hurt the business financially but had no choice because there are goals to reach in order to keep your job. The job is terrible but they put in a game room, offer free vitamin water and sometimes give you pizza to trick you into thinking that this is a great place to work.

Vantaggi

No pro’s whatsoever. If you’re thinking about joining this company, save yourself a headache and run.

Svantaggi

“Burn and churn” culture with minimal long-term investment in employees. Limited support and inconsistent coaching from management. Quarterly quotas frequently change, directly impacting compensation and making earnings unpredictable. Commission, if you’re lucky to get any, gets paid every 3 months- if terminated, you lose out on THOUSANDS of your hard earned money Compensation does not align with responsibilities—BDRs are often expected to perform full-cycle sales functions similar to Account Executives on a low base salary, ($40,000) Once placed on a performance plan, there is little path to recovery and increased scrutiny follows. High-pressure onboarding environment—new hires are expected to close deals quickly, with limited ramp time. Promotions appear inconsistent and not always based on performance, which can impact team morale and leadership quality. Concerns raised to leadership or HR are not always addressed in a transparent or timely manner.
