Pros

Very inclusive. While some pockets of the staff may act fraternity and sorority-esque, generally the environment is welcoming and friendly. Plenty of transparency and willingness to help from DMs, just ask and even propose your own solutions to show you are being proactive. Very community-oriented. Lots of fun events both during the workday and outside of the office. GREAT learning opportunities! You learn several different methods of entry-level selling and if you're paying enough attention, you find what works for you. As grueling as the job is, you get what you put in. If you go in with a growth/learning mindset, you will find plenty of opportunities to advance your career. Hard work rarely goes unrecognized by management. You learn A LOT in a short amount of time. If you're a rookie to the industry, even a few months can turn you into an experted cold-caller/sdr.

Cons

Either have a thick skin, or build one. As tough as this job is, this is not a place for victim mentality. You dial 100+ times a day and contact through linkedin and emails as well, so you get what you put in. Your entire job is talking to strangers and answering to whatever level of satisfaction your client expresses, and they don't sugarcoat feedback. The pay isn't great when you start out, I'd keep a side job on the weekends if possible. A good bit of your success is determined on what client you work with. Placement seems very randomized.

Pros

- Good Sales Training - Good Company Culture, Everyone wants to learn and help - Good Managers will be able to provide great coaching to help further grow your skills

Cons

- Your success is highly dependent on what client they give you. If they give you a hard client, do not expect to see those bonuses come in frequently. - Managers are also another luck of the draw. Started off with a great manager, who'd always be willing to help and coach. But then transitioned to another manager who was about my age, not very competent at coaching or advice since he had only been on an easy client for 6 months before being promoted, and would micromanage the team very hard. If you get a bad manager + a hard client, you will not have a good time at memoryBlue since they are already expecting you to work hard. - Pay and the bonuses are very low. Whether or not you'll see a raise is dependent on what client you get whether since it's based on hitting quota an X amount of times.
