Pros
Truly a great place to develop your sales career and be exposed to the wider FMCG industry. Lots of opportunities to be part of the end-to-end sales process from discovery of clients' needs to successfully winning deals. Opportunity to work with big FMCG giants across SEA. Young and fun environment with decent benefits and sales commission. Research and consulting members often work closely to help sales team achieve their revenue targets. Kudos to the managers within research and consulting who are supportive of the dynamics in helping the business as a whole achieve our goals. Consulting Business Development model is interesting with hardworking and smart members helping to craft proposals for extended needs within key accounts of the business.
Cons
Limited growth opportunities unless you move to a different team/ function. Often long working hours with little support and direction from management. Late night calls are sometimes required with other internal stakeholders based in other offices.
