toxic work place

Hi all,

I wanted to share my experience recently for any SDR's looking for a job.

I was looked over again for a promotion. I won't get into details, but due to corporate politics and family relations other individuals are able to get ahead of me. They don't look at stats or performance. They lie and string you along with corporate lingo until you burn out and find somewhere else to work. As long as you have a personal connection they'll move you up, if not, forget it.

If I can go back here's what I'd look for to avoid working for a toxic company such as mine and instead in an environment that encourages growth:

1. their glassdoor review
2. churn rate of reps
3. how many sdr's were recently promoted to AE
4. Ask for detailed career growth paths
5. how many percentage of reps hit and maintain quota
6. what is the work life balance of your company

This role has taken a big toll on my mental and left a bitter taste in my mouth, never the less these are lessons every sales rep can be aware of when navigating their sales career. Don't stay somewhere like I did for "cOmPaNY LoyALty" they can replace you, quick. Do what's best for your sales career.
