Start here, then go elsewhere - Account Development Manager Podium Employee Review

There are so many cons I don't know where to begin. When I first took this job, I was elated to get started. I thought this would be the start of an incredible sales career that would take me to being an account executive eventually. Then you slowly start to understand why this department has the highest turnover rate I have ever seen. In my time working here, I've seen 11 people total leave the team within 9 months. There were only 15 people on the team when I first started. The biggest reason people leave is because of the dynamic quota. If you want to work for a sales department that has a constant moving quota on a monthly basis, this is the job for you. There's no such thing as time off either unless you are okay with missing quota. I can't tell you how many people I've seen crying or overly stressed to the point of quitting because of it, and yet they don't do anything about it to change it. The promotional path is a joke. They claim that the promotional path here is a "business-need-based promotion" which means you must go to the department they have chosen for you. You will also be randomly selected to work some evenings and you volunteer for a weekend time slot every weekend. The compensation for all of this combined isn't worth it.
