Pros

TQL has the attitude of work hard and play hard. If you put in the time and effort, it will not go unnoticed. It's a fairly laid back environment but they expect you to get results.

Cons

After working there for a year, they cut you off from your base salary and put you on 100% commission. This is expected so it's something you can prepare for. However, if you lose a large account for whatever reason and don't have the ability to make up your lost margins, you will not last.

Thanks for your feedback. We did want to clarify one statement you made -- this position is Salary + Commission even after one year.

Pros

Frat House environment if that's what you're into.

Cons

Where do I even start.... My first week there the sales manager, whose account I was supposed to look over and be trained by, was gone for the whole week. The desk spot they put me at was next to this JBL party box, making it virtually impossible to communicate over the phone. When you're in the training phase you literally do all the work for the account manager, then you're expected to make cold calls to people that want no part in TQL. When you do get someone on the phone and make a sale, you wont be seeing any of that money. They have a commission draw set up where you have to be making a certain amount of revenue before you can make commission- thus leaving you to the measly 43k salary. These recruiters and managers SELL you a false dream, the turnover rate there is astronomical for a reason. They will hire anyone that'll learn the system, use them for labor for 6 months, cut them when they don't meet the ridiculous KPI metrics. To be actually successful here you either have to work near 60+ hours a week for YEARS waking at 4am to "snipe" accounts that have been released due to inactivity, or be handed an account by a retiring SR level manager. RUN from this company!
