Pros

There is a decent opportunity to make a good amount of money in commission with hard work. Company Christmas party is pretty dope, too.

Cons

The majority of management is white and male. I've seen very few woman get promoted, but many overqualified woman get passed over for mediocre white dudes. They have lost a lot of quality employees as a result. Sales ops is incredibly disconnected. Incentives don't align with company mission. Reps have so many boxes to check that its easy to lose sight of the bigger picture.. I could go on and on but I'll leave it at this.. Groupon is a good place to start your career, but not a place to build your career.

Pros

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Cons

Management doesn’t care about you. Unrealistic goals. Everyone at 30-40% of quota. Complicated quota attainment system. Your job is to ask for 70% of margins for small businesses that have only 10-15% margin budgets
