Avantages

They're honest about everything that is potentially going to be a con from the get-go. Lots of room for growth and probably a great place to cement yourself with a company for long term... if you can handle sticking around for at least a year. I couldn't just because I don't like sales. I know what other sales companies get up to and compared to some nightmare reviews I've heard and from my experience here, ET will treat you much better than the others. I know that sales companies that boast about a good company culture is more often than not a huge red flag but like I said, these guys are honest about what you're in for and that's all you could ask for in this tough industry. The onboarding and training period is decent. Everyone in sales team is super friendly and loves to crack jokes so expect to have lots of fun while you work. I miss the culture here. It's not always about results, as long as you want to try harder and put up your hand about needing help, they will do their best to help you.

Inconvénients

Paid monthly. Typical for the industry - your commissions get paid in arrears so if you leave, you won't get a cent from any deals you were responsible for in your last pay cycle. In general, I think this is unfortunate and not progressive. However, it's not only normalized because literally every other sales company is like this but it's also legal in Australia so what can you do. Like I said, at least they are honest and upfront about this stuff and it is in your contract. You cannot choose which client to represent, you are just assigned. Some SDRs have better luck with other clients. On top of this, you eventually get groomed into having more than just one client. And on top of THIS, your client might have a weird request for a really bizarre pseudonym that you must use. I don't think I'm allowed to say what the names are but it's such a ridiculous rule. At least let the SDRs pick a name that actually sounds like a real name if they can't use their own. I'm impressed that the company can grow despite using these hilarious aliases to cold call with. Lots of cold calling (they make this very clear to you, it is 70% of your role including meetings and strategies on how to cold call better, database cleansing so you cold call better, everything revolves around being the best cold caller you could possibly be which is great if that is what you want to be but it wasn't for me.

Avantages

EngageTech's culture is unique and unlike any other. Earning potential is top tier. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is held to a high standard - you will be immersed within a global company. Development Training is challenging, but necessary!

Inconvénients

As per the review headline, be prepared to get exposed to the nitty gritty foundational skills that will be necessary for any successful sales role. It's worth reiterating: working hard at this company is a REQUIREMENT! There's not a single person that cruises their way through the job - sorry. Standards are held high and expectations are assigned; however, you will have the biggest support team to back you every step of the way.

training can be helpful but feel like you could learn more from reading a sales book.

Inconvénients

The culture here is very much of micromanaging each other. There are 1 million different rankings of SDR, and believe that every single one of them above you or on your level will be trying to micromanage you. Promotions are based off of favoritism and how visible you can make yourself on slack and in the office, regardless of if you actually contribute anything meaningful. Managers behave in a very unprofessional way. I am honestly shocked by some of the things I have seen and heard while working here. It does not feel like a serious work environment. And, there is no real HR support. Dishonest practices while cold calling. Encourage lying about who you are and where you are calling from. Not to mention they don’t provide necessary sales tools. Some campaigns are easier than others. They are also having employees write good reviews.
