Pros
-All around mostly good people to work with -Mostly WFH, only one day in office -Compensation for Wifi while working at home -Free Food in Office -Flexible Hours
Cons
-Poor Management -Unrealistic Expectations to sell such a niche product. 14 meetings a month is not standard across the board. For most sales development roles the structure is 8,10,12. Gartner’s 12,14,16 structure is a little ridiculous. Territories have been RUN THROUGH. People who want the product will respond back- not really a needed product especially at its high cost. -Luck based, if you don’t hit your expected goal you will be fired and replaced, you are easily replaced in this program. -Job security and enjoyment primarily relies on who your managers are. If you don’t have a good relationship with them you won’t go far. -In personal opinion BDR is one of the hardest jobs at the company (cold calling, emails) with C level executives yet get paid the least. -Be expected to do very monotonous work with constantly emailing and calling people using a script (gets very old) -Pay could be better -Luck also depends on territory -Very high turnover (got let go after 6 short months)
