Pros
The people make the place. Truly great colleagues who are supportive and fun to work with. Friday breakfasts are a nice touch and give a good social start to the day. If you’re into sales, it’s a highly sales-driven environment—targets, growth, and energy are always on the table.
Cons
The sales team often distances themselves from responsibility, regularly saying things like “I’m sales, that’s not my job”, which can make collaboration difficult and frustrating—especially when management tends to back them regardless. The work becomes repetitive fast. You’re often doing the same tasks over and over again, which can feel monotonous and unchallenging over time. Entry-level salaries are worryingly low, especially considering how much responsibility juniors can have. Meanwhile, there are significant pay gaps that don’t always reflect performance or contribution. After the acquisition of BC, the company lost much of its flexibility—the very thing that made J2 Sourcing such a unique and attractive place to work. It now feels more like you’re working for the system, rather than the system working for you. There's a lot more red tape and admin-heavy processes.
