Pluspunten

Some nice people. You learn to be resilient and it definitely makes you grow a back bone.

Minpunten

Multiple CEOs in place who know nothing about how the departments work, you wonder why they have the role. Complaints are made against colleagues and nothing is done about it. I have heard complaints about how male colleagues have acted towards young female colleagues and reports of bullying and the people responsible are never dealt with, yet they make ‘redundancies’ a few times a year and will get rid of people who are actually good at their jobs. Rubbish product, always mis-sold and clients or attendees are lied to. Toxic culture, I have never experienced anything like it. I would strongly tell anyone to avoid this place unless you want your mental health to be affected and be out of a job with bills to pay at a moments notice.

Pluspunten

Met a few good people here, but none of them lasted. Everyone eventually quit or got pushed out.

Minpunten

This company is a perfect example of how to burn out employees, squander talent, and mismanage a sales org. Team members are often overlooked, talked down to, and treated more like call-center output than actual professionals. My manager consistently interacted with me and others in ways that were discouraging and demoralizing, and it was clear there was little interest in coaching or developing people. The culture feels more like a clique-driven high school environment than a workplace. Turnover is nonstop, and the atmosphere noticeably changes whenever senior leadership is around. KPIs are unrealistic, and the product is genuinely tough to sell in the current market. Hitting quota is rare, many reps only close a couple of small deals the entire year, and the commission structure doesn’t make it any easier. You’re closely monitored from the moment you log in, and by mid-morning you’re already being questioned about your activity. Late hours are common due to rigid activity requirements. Training is minimal, senior reps generally keep to themselves, and asking for help sometimes gets interpreted as not being capable rather than trying to improve. The day-to-day environment is loud, chaotic, and high stress. Headphones aren’t allowed. Standards are enforced unevenly. Some people are given a wide berth, while others are micromanaged over very small things. The culture leans heavily on pressure, constant urgency, and short-term reactions instead of any real long-term strategy or leadership approach. If you care about your mental health, professional development, or actually improving as a salesperson, I’d strongly recommend looking at other companies. Leaving this role was genuinely one of the best decisions I’ve made for my career.
