Pluspunten

Can't fault the team - all very kind and supportive and happy to help new starters. The company itself is amazing in what it's achieved and is good to have on a corporate CV.

Minpunten

In summary I wouldn't recommend this job to anyone unless you have prior sales experience and you know you love sales and can put up with the below issues. There is lots of micro-management, making confidential calls in front of workers, massive favouritism (especially towards the men on the team...) hence the huge turnover of staff. They will try sell you the job with the 'amazing' commission but will fail to mention that this is becoming increasingly difficult to get because of company changes. Another massive issue is that the role is based on finding new business but this is very difficult in the UK as the market is almost completely saturated now. There is no flexible working and little respect for things outside of work that are out of your control e.g. Being asked to take annual leave for the doctor... There isn't really any career progression as all you can do is move on to another department after two years.

Pluspunten

Autonomy & Independence: You get great autonomy to build your own schedule. It operates very much like a true field sales motion, which is great if you value independence. Perks: There is a high degree of expense freedom, and the Sales Kickoffs are a definite highlight.

Minpunten

The company is currently gasping for air and is super misaligned. There is absolutely no sense of direction. The Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy obviously doesn't work because leadership changes strategy it every Half because of poor performance . Turnover is INCREDIBLY HIGH, people was congratulating me that I made it at Darktrace more than a year when I left, which is never a good sign for a company. CEO REPVUE- stated that only 15% of reps hit their goal attainment at Darktrace from it's reviews. If you apply here, you need to know exactly what you are getting into and be willing to work extremely hard just to help dig the company out of a hole.
