Pros and cons - Global Account Manager Cogent Communications Employee Review

Great company that offers great solutions and cares about customers.

None up to this point

Chill manager, decent base pay, cool work location

The work is highly monotonous, repetitive, and mentally draining. The expectations feel unrealistic, especially given the lack of effective tools, training, and meaningful support to help employees reach quota. The environment feels less like a career path and more like a high-pressure survival job. Success appears heavily dependent on having an established book of business built over many years, which puts newer employees at a major disadvantage. The monthly quota pressure creates constant job insecurity, which is exhausting and unhealthy. Having your job feel at risk every single month makes the culture feel punitive rather than motivating.
