Pros

Remote and freedom to work freely

Cons

I was fired during the trail run, I wasn’t aware of my numbers, to keep up to the minimum goal. Manager was useless and barely available. Fired in 2-3 weeks before I was able to land a deal. I had 2-3 pending but most merchants are not interested in Groupon and thinks of it as a scam or uncool and who uses it is large scale businesses but the smaller businesses are no longer in support of this service, very angry or rude merchants who think of it as a disservice vs a beneficial service. Very low pay and very incompetent staff.

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
