Pros

The training is thorough and sets you up well to succeed in sales, especially if you're new to the industry. Remote work flexibility is a huge plus, especially for those who value work-life balance. Great team energy — coworkers are supportive, and leadership is encouraging when you hit goals. Opportunity to make solid money if you perform well — commission structure rewards top sellers. Company offers good incentives like spiffs, recognition, and even trips.

Cons

The work is very metrics-driven, and pressure to perform can be overwhelming at times. Commission structure changes fairly often, which can make earnings unpredictable. Burnout is real — back-to-back calls with high-pressure sales can take a toll mentally. PTO and mental health days could be improved, especially for sales reps constantly on the phone. Advancement can be competitive and often depends on staying in the top percentile.

Pros

-Uber Eats Vouchers/Vouchers for food on campus -PTO hours are added every week

Cons

Clearlink went from a CEO that didn’t give a single care about the employees to new leadership that seems to care now but with that, I feel like the new people aren’t aware of what’s really going on. When you’re hired here, boy, do they sell you the dream! Everything is good, and slowly you start to lose hope & very quickly you learn this company is going downhill one way or another. I was part of the social team for years. We were promised growth and new opportunities and that NEVER happened. We’d bring up concerns about leadership in our individual team and the concerns were NEVER taken seriously, because as I easily learned, this company is like high school, they will protect their friends even if it means losing a brand partner. The higher ups will have random meeting to talk about the department & there’s specific higher ups who feel the need to show off their Disney trips/cruises while some of us are struggling to even keep up with bills and living paycheck to paycheck. Overall, there’s A LOT of broken promises on growth. Pay sucks and it’s hard to get a pay raise. Any concern you bring to a higher up will leave you ignored or they won’t do anything about it. Your career won’t grow here unless you’re BFFs with higher ups that have been there forever.
