Not the best - Senior Account Executive Exact Data Employee Review

There’s a lot here. To give an idea, I interviewed on a Friday and started the next Monday, that should’ve been a red flag for me but I was desperate for work, that’s the only reason you should take this job. The place was a turnover machine before Covid, no one was really let go once they went WFH but nothing got better. You get paid off a draw and the pay is considerably less than competitive. I never received a raise in the three and a half years I worked there, take home pay was a shade over $900 every 2 weeks. If you can live on $22k/year good for you, I couldn’t it’s the main reason I left. Another issue is that the ratio of sales reps to managers was just about 1:1 for the last two years or so making advancements almost impossible. The company was acquired by Data Axle and operates under its umbrella, sales meetings are attended by both DA and ED reps but the DA reps are on a completely different (and better) pay structure. Imagine sitting in a meeting every morning and looking at a sea of faces of people that do the same job as you, at technically the same company and knowing that they are making significantly more money than you is aggravating. The overall lack of transparency was astounding and the KPI’s were somewhat unrealistic. If you want to sit on the phone all day trying to sell a service people don’t really want and only bring in $2k/month more power to you. Lastly, if management gets a hint that you’re leaving or looking for other work they will fire you immediately. I had to quit on literally the last day possible just to make sure I got paid. They won’t pay out your PTO either if you leave. Not a great place to work and I regret almost all of the over 3 years I worked there expect for the friends I made.
