Pros

ClassPass is really good at hiring Genuinely good people. I had a great experience with just about every person I worked with in the bast 2 years. Decent Benefits. Wellness Days.

Cons

There are a lot of inconsistentencies and as many others have said the pay is low for the industry. If you don't hit your full quota- commision is almost non existant. $200 for over 20 something completed meetings is less than motivating. When I was hired I was sold on the low wage due to the position being entry level and obtainable quotas. As time has gone on the quota and role expectations are much less obtainable. The manager will encourage you to "just lie if you have to" to get the meeting and to work off the clock (unpaid) to hit her quota. Even if you are too far away to even get paid she will still try to guilt trip you into helping her hit her quota... unpaid- off the clock and no commision. What everyone else says about very few people answering the phone in certain overworked teritories is 100% true.

Pros

There's some nice benefits, like ClassPass credits, good insurance, and remote.

Cons

First and foremost, if you're a POC, you need to stay far away from this place. There is absolutely no diversity, and majority of the sales org, including the leaders, are white women. The managers lack skill, and don't know how to sell or manage. They only became managers because of their connections or because they were there in the early days of ClassPass and stayed long enough to get promoted. Nothing based on merit or skill. The sales culture is very churn and burn. The retention rate is so low, and this company is like a revolving door. You become a "veteran" or senior employee if you have worked there longer than 4 months. They have extremely unrealistic goals for the sales org, and the leads are awful. And it's because the company is terrible, and doesn't invest in partner services or support, so gyms and salons tend to have a bad experience because the resources and support they have for them are abysmal. Not to mention the bad reputation that ClassPass has; if you call a lead that has been called before, you will get extremely frustrated owners. They will tell you that ClassPass reps are harassing them by constantly calling, but that is what you are taught to do as a rep. To wrap it all up, there is no diversity, incompetent leaders, and bad reputation.
