Its a call centre, and you are treated as a number. - Business Development Manager GDS Group Employee Review

Thank you for your feedback. Sales role - I am sorry to hear that your experience with GDS Group didn’t meet your expectations. The Sales environment is both dynamic and energetic, with our sales process relying on several sales techniques. Great prospecting means that we do not only use social media channels and face-to-face but we also use phone based as a means of connecting with our customers on a personal level. We realise that for some individuals that this is not their preferred means of prospecting and therefore these individuals I regret would not be a good fit for our organisation. The first 6 months is a critical learning period in any role where people either find their feet, or find out it’s not for them. As you pointed out there are many great sales people who work hard, are rewarded well and have been here for many years – some for as long as 20! Amenities – Thanks for feeding back on the amenities we provide. We have a kitchen on each of our 3 floors in our Bristol office and a vending machine on the ground floor for all staff to use for drinks and snacks. The building facilities are shared with several other companies and managed independently. I have flagged up your comments from March with them for investigation. You - We are keen to learn from previous employment experience and I would urge you to contact us directly to discuss further.
