Pros

The car is fully expensed with a fuel card etc, you’re also left to your own devices which is nice. Good work / life balance. The product is fantastic and you can’t fault it, it’s an easy sell when you can get the price right.

Cons

Very poor pay, the basic is £1500 per month (the minimum you can earn is 22k as they top you up if you fall short, but this is still awful pay considering the job market). The company culture / mood and feel of the place is dire. Everyone is miserable and you’re lucky if you find a rep who works more than 3 hours per day (management don’t like to admit it). Stock levels in the UK are a joke and it leads to lord of angry customers and difficulty when negotiating prices. As a rep, you are treated like you are at the bottom of the barrel. Basic company information is withheld from you and it feels like you are not trusted with anything. A lot (not all) of the office staff are plain rude. There is almost no direction from upper management, the MD bangs on about wanting results for all of the KPI’s but never puts anything in place to help you get those results. Little opportunities for progression unless you want to become full time admin / punching bag as an area manager.

Pros

They have a lot of on site employee amenities with a hybrid work model. Would recommend negotiating as much remote freedom as possible. Office keeps up the cool techy image and they have professional relationships with interesting product prospects.

Cons

Hard to work with as management is not clear on what they want/need from their employees. Higher ups also have had a history of misogyny and discriminatory behaviour that HR may be trying to keep under wraps and manage the perspective that it never existed but if you get to talk with them more on a personal level, there are signs especially from the other men. Also seems that there is a lack of accountability where management don't talk with each other clearly and expect employees to be the middlemen. Either they figure it out or they are shut out from circles. There is also a superficial act of addressing issues because "startup culture" so they move fast. But just as friendly as they start out, they'll ice you out just as quickly. Somebody also passed away recently and the reaction from management was PC at best.
