Pros

-Free Lunch on Friday -Happy hours roughly every other quarter -Entry level job to gain experience

Cons

Would not stay there past one year if you're serious about sales. Much like typical sales jobs, this job starts you off in business development, unlike typical sales roles there is no chance that you will eventually end up selling anything but time. The side of the business that sells sales training, prospecting, and meeting scheduling techniques is closed. Much of that work going to a network of outsourced professionals. It is very ironic that a company that claims to prepare you for a career in sales and has an entire department geared towards training inside sales teams admits their "rock stars" know nothing about the full sales cycle. They don't seem to have any interest in teaching anyone either. They will bring one or two employees to that side of the business every once in a while to give off the impression that career development exist. That employee will be given a slightly higher salary(2K) scheduling for the in house sales trainers. The only qualifications the manager have is that they excelled in a scheduling role, they have no "people" skills and often act as the source of gossip. Their idea of coaching is telling employee A,B,C how they did it. There is no desire to try to understand how each person may respond to coaching. The managers have a big hand in assigning clients, so you better cuddle up. Your success greatly depends on what client you are assigned. The CEO has the potential to be a contributing member of the company but is lazy. His attitude is that of a Fortune 500, not of a 30 person company with 1 small office. The "small company" feel is non-existent as you may have the opportunity to interact with upper management once a month.

Pros

There is nothing good about Vorsight. If you read anything positive about this place, that person is lying and is probably a senior level employee trying to offset some of the terrible reviews.

Cons

There are no transferable skills from this job- they love to talk about how you'll be introduced to different industries and they even have the audacity to say that working here is like getting a "mini MBA." Lies. You just scour LinkedIn profiles looking for relevant people and then call them a thousand times each day until that person finally picks up the phone. That is LITERALLY all you do. Just linkedin and dialing. Working at Vorsight is soul crushing. Most people only work at Vorsight for about three months before they leave because this job is terrible and the longer you stay, the worse it is for your resume. If you respect yourself, find a different place to work. A lot of people also come here thinking it's a way to enter the corporate world- couldn't be farther from the truth. You'll be stuck in sales forever because there's no way to apply what you do here to anything other than sales. They have a high turnover rate because everyone wants to get out.

Thanks for the feedback. We strive within our interview process to always hire those with the greatest potential to succeed in their desired role. All new hires receive our award-winning training and countless hours of ongoing development. Those who continue to develop their skills with us for a year or more have shown tremendous success in both moving up in our business and/or outside opportunities as a direct result of the skills they've mastered and connections they've made during their experience at Vorsight. Like all businesses, sometimes we find out we've hired someone who is simply not a fit, despite great intentions and investment from both sides.

Pros

A way to gain experience after college.

Cons

Misleading during the interview process. I spoke to my friend, a labor lawyer, about them saying the average salary is twice what it really is on their job posting. She said that is considered fraud. I was too naive coming out of college to know better. If you look at the past positive reviews, you can tell they are fake. For one, there are long stretches of time between reviews that are negative, yet the positive reviews come in at very short intervals of time to one another. The CEO overuses the term "to that point" which appears in one of the reviews. Others outline talking points exactly like they teach you to sell. Don't be taken advantage of the way I was when I entered the workforce after school. This is not a good place to work. I strongly recommend candidates look at less amateur organizations before wasting years of their lives working here. Live and learn. If you want to work hard (making 100+ telemarketing calls/day) without reasonable compensation, sign up for Vorsight. If you want to be 1,000x smarter than your boss, sign up for Vorsight. If you want to be in an environment that resembles a middle school sleepover, sign up for Vorsight.

Thank you for your feedback. As you highlighted in your review, Vorsight’s Business Development Associate program is a great way to gain valuable experience after graduation. For many of our Associates this is their first introduction to sales. For that reason, when Vorsight extends an offer to a potential associate, there is a detailed description of the earning potential, including their starting base salary and an uncapped commission structure. New Business Development Associates have the opportunity to take advantage of this on their first day. The commission structure is intended to motivate and incentivize our team members to not just hit, but exceed goals. It is also designed that way to reflect the commitment that our company has to creating a culture that recognizes and rewards our people. Our job posting provides an average range that employees can expect to earn in their first year, which is a combination of base salary as well as commission. We have had numerous high performers in the past exceed that range. As we make clear in the hiring process, Vorsight has a culture of providing opportunities for team members to have control over their earnings by way of performance. We welcome driven, motivated individuals looking for a place to launch a career in sales who are willing to put in the effort to make successes possible.
