Pros

Snacks... youthful co-workers, but sometimes extremely playful... go home at 5 and weekends off.

Cons

-I didn't have experience in ad tech or data and I was hired here. I don't feel like I was trained to do my job well. -For training I was given 300 terms and a 100 question test. -I think the sales team suffers from poor brand recognition. -It was very frustrating having to send 200 emails a day to get paid. Seeing that we had no success with email outreach. -Our only form of sales outreach was email. I wish we could have used phones to do a better job. -I think Clickagy could invest in their people a bit more instead of spending money growing into an unneccesary space. -It would have been nice to have a sales manager or leader. Someone with some relevant experience to guide the team. We suffered from not understanding our product. -I have yet to witness a successful sale in my time here. -In my opinion, the salary projections were unrealistic. I was told that I could be making $70k/yr in 6 months. For a multitude of reasons, I was still making $7.50/hr.

Pros

Keep snacks and drinks in stock for you to have.

Cons

I was hired on as a lead generator. In my opinion we were given a job that we were unable to succeed in considering our only form of outreach was mass email (more like email marketing than sales in my opinion). We received no training nor had any experience in the data field. The training was us learning the industry on our own for two weeks with no guidance. This is partly due to the fact their is no one in any kind of leadership role. I believe the job ad was misleading due to the fact that it promised $8-$10/hr plus huge commissions and was only receiving $7.50. We were promised to see many deals closed and that we would be making 6 figures in 6 months (but of course that never happened). I believe the company is more worried about using people to make the company more money and does not care too much for its employees.
