Pros
-Co-workers are generally awesome -Direct supervisors are caring and want you to succeed -No weekends, no after hours, and many Fridays you can leave early -You get to do the full sales cycle from prospecting to close -You get to work in a lot of different industries -Company gives out monetary incentives (called 'spiffs') It's a fun culture and people get along. Most hires are young (under 30) and for about half it's their first job out of school meaning people are eager to be nice and make friends. When it comes to your immediate supervisors 'directors' most (not all but most) are good and are there to help. For example, if you need to take PTO on short notice they are generally super accommodating. I encourage you to use your director as a resource when prospecting accounts and closing deals. Rely on them for knowledge and experience. Unlike most entry level sales jobs, the pressure to grind is pretty tame. As long as you are trying they have been generally lenient. I start my day at 7:30, take an hour for lunch, leave at 4:30, and there are two scheduled breaks in-between. I never have to stay late and I never have to work on weekends. About half of Fridays are "go-homes" meaning that once the entire company hits a certain amount of revenue for the day everyone gets to go home. Sometimes this happens at ~10 in the morning (awesome), other times you stay the whole day (less awesome), but it is nice to be rewarded when the company is doing well. Even as a new rep you actually get to close deals. You're not just scheduling calls with people, you are prospecting, pitching, closing, and upselling. It is also cool that you get to work in a variety of different industries. It keeps things fresh and if, for example, you're not doing well selling ads in the construction industry, you can go to healthcare, or education, or manufacturing etc. and see if you find a niche there. Periodically the company will give out small bonuses aka 'spiffs' to reward everything from the rep who has the most call time to the rep who can eat 5 hot dogs the fastest. At one point I had $1,200 on my spiff card. It paid for all my Christmas gifts and a bunch of dates. Very nice.
Kontras
-Get ready to cold call -Pay sucks (and there's a commission threshold) -Structure is designed to funnel money to tenured reps -Upper management lacks transparency -No real career/upward potential -No WFH This is a cold calling sales job. If you can't make dials for 8 hours a day while getting declined 95% of the time, find another line of work. The base pay is pretty laughable at $45,000 but the worst part about the pay is that there's a commission threshold. Even though your commission should be 11%* of your total revenue, you don't collect a dime of that unless you sold more than $11,500 that month. Usually ~50% of reps under 12 months tenure will hit threshold in any given month (they will lie to you about this statistic in the hiring process). Those who don't meet it quit. Realistically expect maybe 55K gross pay your first year. Sure you can get lucky and close a single six figure deal (which did happen to one rep), but in reality most of your starting deal sizes will be about ~5K with an upper limit of ~15K and if you want to make any real money you will need to upsell your clients into Multiview's custom-built campaigns. The problem is that you're gatekept from selling the customized campaigns yourself. Instead, you have to loop in a 'closer' who can sell it for you and then split the commission with them 50/50. This is why 15 closers at the company make like half the revenue. While middle management is generally pretty awesome, upper management is atrocious. They will tout transparency as one of their core values but they will not be transparent at all. They will have you switch teams without any warning, make it unclear what holidays you are getting off, your daily metrics will change (for a while they expected everyone to hit 150 minutes of call time every day- of course no one ever did but they still pretended like it was achievable). At one point the CEO took 4 reps off the floor and made them do mind-numbing data-entry for 3 months without telling them until the very end how long they would be there or if they would get paid extra (It's rumored they eventually got some kind of payout). How much of these terrible decisions are coming from Multiview versus its parent company Stagwell, I'm not really sure. While Multiview is good sales experience and you will learn very quickly if you are cut out for it, in terms of long term career development you're not really learning any hard skills you can take to any other non-sales job. Most people are actively searching for other jobs while here. Lots of people complain that the job is 100% in-person even though it can be done completely remote. I don't really mind. I do my best work in-person.
