Pros

Remote work, flexibility, friendly coworkers, growth opportunities

Cons

- The company exhibits a striking lack of consideration & inclusion of individual's creative inclinations. - Moreover, they often turn a blind eye to any achievements or increment in the quality of work of contractors. - Apart from salary, there are no extra benefits such as social security, visa sponsorships, or insurance. - It's a high-stress environment for underachievers, with a lot of focus on targets and performance. If expectations aren't being met, you'll have to make some compromises in your work-life balance. - Every day, I receive a large number of emails from prospects who are frustrated with the frequency with which they are contacted and who believe that we should assume that they are not interested if they do not respond after two or three emails. They have threatened to report me as a spammer and to file a harassment complaint against our company. It's demoralising to be perceived as a frontline representative who harasses prospects via emails. - They've increased the pressure on us to book more calls and send fewer emails at the same time, making it even more difficult to meet our goals. Additionally, if they notice that we're falling short of our benchmarks, they'll put you on a performance improvement plan, adding even more stress to the mix. This work is ideal for someone who enjoys hunting down leads and making cold calls everyday. If you have trouble dealing with stress or performing repetitive tasks, I would not recommend this job to you.

Pros

My teammates were great people.

Cons

Leadership are absolutely clueless on how to run a business. Nobody knows what they're doing, it's actually hilarious. If you're considering joining Ontop, I would absolutely recommend NOT doing so. Exec team works everyone like slaves because their one goal is cashing out, they don't care about you and will lay off teams 5 days before Christmas. The product is garbage. No one knows what real growth looks like or how to make it happen. Go apply at Deel, Remote, Rippling, etc.
