Pros

The role was a great opportunity to learn and grow, especially as an early tech role. In this position, you develop skills in troubleshooting network connections, invoice templating, and automation issues. The hybrid schedule is a good perk to have, especially with the Austin office downtown.

Cons

You may have to deal with gaslighting and ignoring from management, spotlighting their inexperience and lack of mastery of the role. In a high-pressure environment, this can compound the pressure of the job. Pay is a bit low which is why they target candidates with little experience or transitioning into the industry. This, on its face, isn't bad, but the on-the-job training is subpar. Preparation of the chosen agents isn't a high priority. Management seems content with high turnover and agents fleeing the role as soon as feasible.

Pros

was hired as remote and get to have that honored, but have been openly told no career progression because of remote status. decent pay

Cons

Leadership instability: Seven manager changes during my relatively short tenure. Unrealistic targets: A sales quota set at 1,100% growth (not a typo). Slow product development: Getting anything actioned on the product side takes far too long. Product management turnover: Three product manager changes, resulting in no meaningful deliverables in over three years. Misaligned hiring priorities: Greater emphasis on DEI optics than on hiring people positioned to drive growth. Internal vs. customer focus: More energy spent on internal events than on product enhancements. Lack of accountability (the biggest issue): No one takes ownership. Responsibility gets passed around constantly — for example, client cancellations going unprocessed because they impact someone's numbers. Managers have openly encouraged pushing the work onto someone else rather than handling it.
