Pros

My pay was always correct and ontime and I had amazing coworkers.

Cons

Absolutely no room for advancement unless you're in their version of the cool kids club. Pay is terrible, it's $13-14hr plus commission. The equipment is very outdated (cpu, headsets, monitors) and slow, they keep you at less than 40 hours a week on purpose and they fire you and take your PTO if you give them notice you're leaving.

The department this person is referring to is a sales role. There is no mention of the generous commission structure, and a one call close sales cycle with leads provided, nor all the spiffs and other perks the company offers. The department only works 8-4, M-F which is the least of everyone else in the company. This is an entry level position and does not require previous experience. The reason people do not succeed in this role is because they are relying on the "base" and not looking at the full earning opportunity, actually making the calls and showing up for work and being open to feedback. Regarding advancement, we have advanced over 35 people in the last year in various departments (we only have an average of 110 employees) so the advancement ratio is extremely high. To be considered for advancement BizIQ core values must be demonstrated on a consistent basis. One must be a dedicated employee, have integrity and demonstrate that they can handle a more responsible role by having great attendance and above average performance month over month. And of course, the obvious, one must apply for the role. We have been successful thus far because we do practice what we preach. Best of luck to you in your future ventures.

Pros

I love working at BizIQ for several reasons, but just a few are; management supports and trains consistently, control over my calendar, I am not micro managed, and the pay is good for an entry level account executive. Commission is attainable and rewarding.

Cons

Health insurance is not as affordable as I would like for a parent + child, but BizIQ is a small company and I feel like they do their best for our employees.

Pros

The primary highlight of working here is the immediate team. The frontline staff is incredibly supportive, and there is a genuine sense of camaraderie among peers. Having a solid team makes the difficult days more manageable.

Cons

Unsustainable Workload: Growth Advisors are expected to manage a book of business totaling 160-180 accounts. On top of that, maintaining 15-17 active onboarding clients simultaneously is unrealistic and leads to rapid burnout. Inadequate Training: Employees are often expected to perform high-level implementation tasks with very little formal training or guidance, leading to a "sink or swim" environment. Lack of Communication & Action: Upper management is often unresponsive when asked for clarity on prioritization. Requests for support or workload adjustments are met with vague promises of "working on it," but no tangible changes or action plans ever materialize. Operational Strain: The recent loss of several Growth Advisors has left teams shorthanded. Instead of adjusting expectations, the remaining staff is pushed to work faster without any streamlined processes or new efficiencies in place. Culture Gap: There is a disconnect between the frontline teams and leadership. As you move up the chain, the environment feels less like a partnership and more like employees are viewed as objects to be pushed for higher output, regardless of the quality of life.
