Vantaggi

The culture is very attractive and the music creates a high energy environment which is a nice change of pace. The people are fun, there truly are some motivating and intelligent leaders. Kitchen is always stocked and the office is in a convenient location. Multiple incentives to win additional cash and rewards which helps.

Svantaggi

This review is here because it's only fair to let people know some of the reality that has happened here for the last 4-5 years. It's just the way it is and if it doesn't affect you or your mindset, then you will probably love it here. Of all the leaders in the company, Corey Frank is the only brilliant one. Everyone else is just trying to mirror his tactics and it tends to fall short. For those that have been here awhile and can emulate his leadership, it'll work for the mass majority of reps - otherwise you're going to just feel like it's a cheap rip off. Good artists copy, great artists steal, right? Only a small percentage of SW leaders understand this. I'm not going to hate on the long hours or comp plans - there's no point, it's a sales gig and with that comes a mountain of relative challenges. My issue is with the CEO. He is undoubtedly smart but not in the same way as Corey. He has more of a manipulative, unethical character flaw that you just can't shake. He uses money as a weapon of power and once you've been here long enough you literally see right through it, we all do. There are women in the company that you just feel sorry for because he has them so entwined in this pitiful web of lies and the only glue holding them to this company is the money he pays them. They know they won't make that money elsewhere and at this point they're in too deep to turn back (queue Tom's defensive internal rebuttal) I’m not the only person who feels that prospective reps (women especially) should be warned about coming here if these things are a concern to you. We did prayer group for a while but many stopped going because a man with no ethical principle should not be speaking the Word of God - he's a Pharisee and I pray that he changes his ways. He may be looking at his good deeds like the charity work, donations, "fearless" provider of the SW family but...it's just not ethical. If you can look beyond these things, StormWind can be a nice change of pace with lessons to be learned and perks to be had.

Vantaggi

StormWind is a fast-paced sales environment that really pushes you to grow quickly, especially early in your career. It gives you a lot of real-world reps on the phone, which helps build confidence, resilience, and the ability to handle rejection. You learn how to structure conversations, stay consistent with outreach, and manage your activity using tools like Salesforce. While it can be intense, the experience forces you to develop discipline and sharpen your communication skills in a short amount of time. It’s a strong place to build a foundation in sales and gain experience that can open doors to other opportunities.

Svantaggi

StormWind can feel very fast-paced and sometimes rushed, especially during training and onboarding, which can make it difficult to fully grasp the product and feel confident early on. The role is heavily call-driven and structured, which may not suit people who prefer more in-person interaction or a less repetitive day-to-day. There can also be a disconnect when speaking with highly technical clients, especially if you’re still learning the material, which can make conversations feel unnatural at times. Additionally, the culture may not be a fit for everyone, as it can feel isolating if you don’t naturally connect with the team dynamic.
