Pros

Meltwater provides a fun and inspiring culture, where you get to work with talented people from all over the world. From the beginning, you get the ability to manage the entire sales process from prospect to close, which gives you the opportunity to speak to companies that interest you. Commission is uncapped. Management is supportive and provides ample training and development resources. Opportunities are provided to live and work in cool cities across the world.

Cons

This job is not for someone that isn't willing to work hard or occasionally work outside typical business hours. You will get out what you put into this job, which can be incredibly rewarding for those that go above and beyond.

Pros

The product is cool and if properly onboarded customers will get value from it. Coworkers are fairly social If you are new to sales would be a good place to learn the basics

Cons

Probably the cheapest company I have ever worked for. Benefits are below standard, they changed the commission plan every year I was there so that you would make less money, and you are expected to share hotel rooms when you travel. Look up Meltwater on Reddit or LinkedIn. They are known for very aggressive sales tactics which you will be forced to implement on your customers. A culture of micromanagement that comes from the top down. Virtually no avenue for promotion unless you are willing to move or get lucky and someone leaves.
