Pros
Base salary was good at the time
Kontras
I periodically like to validate my work trauma with others’ reviews and this has been quite cathartic for me. A few years later and it’s all the same as what I experienced. Unrealistic expectations followed by a PIP with completely incomprehensible metrics, followed by a forced quit because I voiced I “wasn’t sure the PIP expectations were achievable”. If I knew then what I know now, I should have let them fire me so I could at least collect unemployment. I was Hired as an account manager with promises of certain accounts, that turned very quickly into straight biz dev in an entirely untouched market, with little to no recruitment support. Completely unrealistic expectations with zero support from leadership, no database of targets, no access to information to prospect. This job really made me reconsider my abilities back then, but I know now it was a bigger issue they’ve still yet to rectify.
