Amazing company - werkgeversreview Account Executive bij WeTravel

Love the people here—great management and supportive team members. The culture is genuinely positive, with great work-life balance that’s actually respected (you don’t feel guilty taking time off). Unlimited PTO is a huge plus. The product is strong and continually improving, and it’s exciting to be in such an inspiring industry as a salesperson. There’s a lot of commission potential if you’re organized and on top of your game. Sales targets are reasonable, and the company is growing fast, which means plenty of opportunity to learn, collaborate across teams, and take ownership of projects. If you care, and put the effort in, you will be successful!

Lots of cold calling (comes with the territory in sales). With the company growing so quickly, there can sometimes be confusion or overlap around who owns certain creative processes and responsibilities. The base salary is on the lower side, and the ramp bonus could be structured more realistically to support the natural seasonality of the industry and the slower ramp period for new reps. At times, organizational goals can feel a bit disconnected, for example, sales targets may not always account for industry seasonality, and a more unified vision would help align teams.

Flexible work environment with autonomy over schedule Remote-friendly and generally accommodating day-to-day flexibility Exposure to SaaS tools in the travel and payments space Opportunity to build outbound prospecting discipline

Highly toxic sales culture with passive aggressive pressure and little support Extremely high turnover; it’s rare to see sales employees last a year Compensation is very low relative to the workload and expectations This is not a traditional sales role—individual effort often has little impact on earnings Revenue depends heavily on how well clients sell their own travel, which is largely outside the salesperson’s control Significant time and energy can be invested with minimal financial upside Reps are responsible for MANY steps in the process, making it challenging to simply be great at selling.
