Grow in a Sales/Marketing Position - Team Lead InsideSalesTeam.com Employee Review

There are so many great reasons to work at this company that I don't have time to list them. Let me just say that this is the best job I've had in my career, and the best people I've ever worked with. I only left because I moved out of state and working remotely was too difficult. One of the best parts of the job was working in the office and being in the great environment that was created there. The work isn't easy, but it's rewarding. If you're willing to do the work and push yourself, management will work with you to make sure you're successful. But you have to do the work. Like any career, success isn't handed to you but if you're willing to dial the phone all day long (and there's a great break schedule to make sure you don't burn yourself out) you can do very well there. An exciting thing about this company is the clients they work with. You'll have the opportunity to work on some fun and exciting projects with some of the latest technology. You'll always be learning new things and getting exposed to some cutting edge stuff. Again, I mention the people I worked with. These are simply the best people you'll ever find in an office. I made some great friends there who I still call friends to this day. If you have the opportunity to work here, do so.

There are some days that are harder than others, and some projects that are tough as well. It's not really a con, just a hard fact. Put in the work, and the success will come.

The people here are simply amazing. Some of the best people I have ever worked with are here at this company. They were always lenient with schedules and what not. They have what they call a Sprint schedule. This is numerous 15 minutes breaks throughout the day. Technology is most definitely up to date and have some pretty cool tools at your disposal. They do some cool things to reward the top salespeople in the company. IST runs some pretty cool competitions and reward people with some cool prizes.

It's a sales environment. Sales environments are always tough. If you have never worked in one, expect alot of calling on the phone and emailing. They at least try to make it fun. Sales generally has a high turnover. This is also the case at IST. IST does a great job of rewarding it's top people. Don't forget to still reward the people who put in an effort every single day. I knew plenty of people at IST who maybe weren't the best at sales people but their effort was top notch. People with a top notch effort can really strengthen a team. I wouldn't overlook that aspect.
