Pros

Start-Up Culture Employees Perks (Free Drinks, Coffee, lots of beer, food, etc.)

Cons

During Groupon's enormous growth stage, a lot of middle-management had no idea how to lead their teams. Upper-Management disconnected from sales and management team Commission structure got worse and worse over time.

Pros

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Cons

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
