Pros

You learn very basic digital marketing strategies that can be applied to future careers.

Cons

This is without a doubt the worst run company I have ever worked for. In the past year, everybody in DSC was given the jobs of 6 different departments without an increase in pay (for an already low paying job) and management still had the audacity to find ways to cut department bonuses. None of the management team has ever done the job previously and they don't care to understand what consultants do. Everyone is just a number and it's a revolving door of underqualified people getting thrown to the fire without proper training. The company focus is in all the wrong places and the processes are overbearing and exhausting. There are so many more things I could say negatively here, but bottom line - this job will run you into the ground and make you feel like your talent is being wasted.

Pros

autonomy, product is seemingly good

Cons

Overall a terrible sales org, commission structure is nonsense and very low percent of reps are on the high tier, including reps that are top performers being on the mid or low tier commission. You are responsible for prospecting, closing, and account management so job gets harder the longer you are there. Force you into long meetings so the VP can show everyone Christopher Voss masterclass videos that are irrelevant. Sales contests where the reward is literally 5 dollars. Training is completely disconnected from how the job actually is, even down to the tech stack they teach you. Sales planning does nothing and does not provide any new leads or any sales tools that work. They do not even have a list of discovery questions to provide you. No one uses any of their provided tech stack you just have to figure out your own processes with no support. Very low base salary which they will lower if you get put on PIP. Extremely unstructured PIP program with no concrete numbers or explanation for how to get off of PIP. Extreme favoritism at the managerial level.
