Pros

They're honest about everything that is potentially going to be a con from the get-go. Lots of room for growth and probably a great place to cement yourself with a company for long term... if you can handle sticking around for at least a year. I couldn't just because I don't like sales. I know what other sales companies get up to and compared to some nightmare reviews I've heard and from my experience here, ET will treat you much better than the others. I know that sales companies that boast about a good company culture is more often than not a huge red flag but like I said, these guys are honest about what you're in for and that's all you could ask for in this tough industry. The onboarding and training period is decent. Everyone in sales team is super friendly and loves to crack jokes so expect to have lots of fun while you work. I miss the culture here. It's not always about results, as long as you want to try harder and put up your hand about needing help, they will do their best to help you.

Cons

Paid monthly. Typical for the industry - your commissions get paid in arrears so if you leave, you won't get a cent from any deals you were responsible for in your last pay cycle. In general, I think this is unfortunate and not progressive. However, it's not only normalized because literally every other sales company is like this but it's also legal in Australia so what can you do. Like I said, at least they are honest and upfront about this stuff and it is in your contract. You cannot choose which client to represent, you are just assigned. Some SDRs have better luck with other clients. On top of this, you eventually get groomed into having more than just one client. And on top of THIS, your client might have a weird request for a really bizarre pseudonym that you must use. I don't think I'm allowed to say what the names are but it's such a ridiculous rule. At least let the SDRs pick a name that actually sounds like a real name if they can't use their own. I'm impressed that the company can grow despite using these hilarious aliases to cold call with. Lots of cold calling (they make this very clear to you, it is 70% of your role including meetings and strategies on how to cold call better, database cleansing so you cold call better, everything revolves around being the best cold caller you could possibly be which is great if that is what you want to be but it wasn't for me.

Pros

The training and support has been excellent since I started. It has enabled me to grow throughout my time here with constant support from all levels within the business. The whole team is warm and welcoming making the workplace an enjoyable place to come every day. There are travel possibilities within the company with employees of all levels going to offices, clients and events across the globe. I have been on multiple trips within my first year which has enabled me to develop different skills and I have loved every opportunity presented to me. Finally the company only promotes from internally and is on growth trajectory which allows fast progression to the next role. This has not only motivated me but combined with the support I have received makes me feel valuable and able to further my career in a competitive industry.

Cons

Sales can be stressful which is not something that changes company to company but in terms of Engagetech I don't really have anything negative to say. I have been stressed at times but the company have been there throughout providing whatever I have asked for in able to help me fulfill my aspirations within the role.

Pros

- Great culture - Great leadership: Flexible, reasonable, understanding and open to suggestions for improvement - High level Sales training - Get to work alongside and learn from elite and top performers who have been at the company for 5+ years. Everyone's non judgemental and always will to offer support and help - Young demographic with a fun vibe but also a professional, mature and very hard working atmosphere which motivates you to perform and earn $$ - You get to acquire a broad and deep knowledge of the Tech sector - Ideal for anyone coming out of uni wanting to challenge them self and make money. (I wish I found this job years earlier, been one of the best I've had!) - Solid connection to the Engagetech UK office where there is regular communication for training, overall improvement, performance and personal growth - The company seems to always be evolving in regards to appreciating the individual by offering support for well being such as personal and mental health

Cons

"Cons" (for lack of a better phrase): - You're expected to grind hard and deliver. - It's a humbling job and it will demand a lot but it will take your success to new levels as well as take you to the bank, all the while having a fun time doing so.
