Cons
If you read any review: read this one. The 5 star reviews are 100% fake and written by management or asked by management to be written on their behalf. If that isn't the definition of a toxic and manipulative working environment, I don't know what is. GDS has required staff to work in the office since as early as July, and continues to maintain that position from my understanding, in the middle of the pandemic, at its absolute worse. One of their offices has had over five people test positive for COVID within the last few weeks alone. You would think they would understand the implications of their decisions and pivot to work-from-home again, but no. They actually have sent those people home and told everyone to come back within 24 hours as long as they have a negative test result. These decisions are being dictated by a CSO who has zero sales background, leads with fear, and openly talks about her psychiatric problems. As everyone is super on edge and scared about their jobs, management just falls in line and does as they are told. I was warned by coworkers who have been there for years that the business has never been in a worse position from a management and micromanagement perspective. It was my experience that they don't care about their employees. I wasn't there long enough to comment on the sales strategies and they seem to have a good product/
