Pros

None at all. I mean if you consider a Pro the fact that they paid us, even though the cheques were always late than I guess thats a Pro

Cons

I worked there right when they closed the Toronto office. Our cheques were arriving late to the office a week sometimes a week and a half late causing a lot of frustration and inconvenience to the staff. The employees were not treated with any respect, we were treated like soldiers who had to work long hours and reach unrealistic and outdated call stats and numbers. Working for this company was an awful experience and any positive review that you read on here is one of the head office staff writing it because they were asked to by Glen White. There is so much bad press about WDM that they will actually tell the employees to purposely come on here and write a few positive ones about them, just like they used to have their staff make up fake social media profiles and "like" or "comment" on their posts on their websites. The company and its owner is out of touch with todays business. They simply stick to the same dull boring methodologies since they started. Salary was garbage and commissions were low. Once made them 40k in a month and received a 1000 bonus, after taxes, 700.00....big deal.

Pros

Relaxed, young work environment, the line level employees always try to help each other. Occasionally there is some real positive energy and this helps with motivation and drive.

Cons

Constantly cycling through dead end leads or people who already have been offered the product at one point or another, for one. However the big problem is the product itself. These are not "leading industry publications" as I was told to refer to them as. If the businesses who are in that industry sector have never heard of them, why would they want to be featured and have their vendors buy ads? I was sick of feeling dishonest by quoting false circulation numbers that were fed to me by executives who couldn't possibly believe the numbers to be real.
