Pros

Flexible Schedule Decent Health Benefits (I Guess)

Cons

-Avoid this company at all costs! -"Good ol' Boys club" mentality -Management is completely out of touch and most aren't qualified to be group leaders -"Our company is in the middle of a Death Spiral" - Recent Quote by management -Absolutely no room to grow, unless you're a professional A** kisser. -I've been a witness to racism, discrimination, and dozens of ethics violations. -Candidates don't be fooled! Management over promises on pay, and catastrophically under delivers. Simple terms: You're being lied to, goals are practically impossible to achieve. -We are being forced to sell certain products to customers that were unproven, and reprimanded for pointing it out to management. -If you're the type of person that believes in "Doing the Right Thing" for your customers, this isn't the job for you. -I was told that the perfect employee is a "Divorced, single, Jewish mother/woman because they'll do anything for the money". (Yes! These were actual spoken words by management) -If you have children, hobbies, or enjoy spending time with your family you're expected to forget about all of it and commit to the 24/7 cult of Hibu inc. -Some employees have made a career out of signing shady plumbers and other businesses... with manager's assistance. The above statements are 100% true no matter how many "paid" or "fake" positive reviews are posted here.

Pros

reat place to work! They truly care about their employees and create an environment where people feel supported and valued. The managers are amazing—they encourage you, challenge you, and push you every day to grow and succeed. It’s a team that genuinely wants to see you win.

Cons

I would recommend doing a little more research and qualification before passing leads over to the reps. Some leads are labeled as ‘hot,’ but after speaking with them, they often don’t have the urgency, need, or buying intent expected. A stronger qualification process would help the sales team focus their time on opportunities that are truly ready to move forward.

Pros

autonomy, product is seemingly good

Cons

Overall a terrible sales org, commission structure is nonsense and very low percent of reps are on the high tier, including reps that are top performers being on the mid or low tier commission. You are responsible for prospecting, closing, and account management so job gets harder the longer you are there. Force you into long meetings so the VP can show everyone Christopher Voss masterclass videos that are irrelevant. Sales contests where the reward is literally 5 dollars. Training is completely disconnected from how the job actually is, even down to the tech stack they teach you. Sales planning does nothing and does not provide any new leads or any sales tools that work. They do not even have a list of discovery questions to provide you. No one uses any of their provided tech stack you just have to figure out your own processes with no support. Very low base salary which they will lower if you get put on PIP. Extremely unstructured PIP program with no concrete numbers or explanation for how to get off of PIP. Extreme favoritism at the managerial level.
