Pros

dress code. flexible hours. new cafeteria.

Cons

managers want one thing one second and another thing a next. there is ZERO positive reinforcement for a job well done. performance feedback is nonexistent. need to trust more in employees and be less like big brother. managers are stretched thin.

Pros

Learned a great deal here. My first big guy job and the responsibilities kept me focused and motivated. I grew a lot as a person at Groupon as well

Not many cons. People are really cool.

Pros

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Cons

Management doesn’t care about you. Unrealistic goals. Everyone at 30-40% of quota. Complicated quota attainment system. Your job is to ask for 70% of margins for small businesses that have only 10-15% margin budgets
