Cons
Recruitment offers all these great future opportunities (IoT, Public Sector, Global accounts, Select accounts), management leaves you in the dark throughout the program on what is available (mainly because they don't know what will be available), and placement gives little ground as to what your options are if you are not on the top of placement ranking (fiber,(internet only), mobility (cell phones/ SIM cards only), and business development(cold call and hand off all leads to workers your age)). At the start of month 3, you will receive inbound calls and requests for additional information. This is good for some, but this creates outliers in the final stack ranking, as some lucky sellers get to close a huge deal that retires their quota. Most receive $100 broadband calls or angry customer service complaints. Ethics, effort, and leadership has no meaning in the sales development program, as the only thing that goes into stack ranking is what you sell. - Total numbers game - Lack of ethics and level playing ground - Upper management leaves you in the dark on placement - Over-promised career opportunities
