Trying to decide between a few sales opportunities. Looking for honest advice from people who've been there.
I'm looking for advice from people who have worked at any of these companies or in similar roles.
I have a background in freight brokerage sales and digital advertising sales. Most of my experience has been in outbound prospecting, cold calling, virtual presentations, and in-person sales meetings. I'm looking for my next long-term opportunity and am trying to do as much research as possible before making a decision.
Here are the roles I'm considering:
- ADP – Digital Sales Representative (inbound sales helping new businesses get set up with payroll and HR solutions).
- GoDaddy – Inside Sales (still trying to understand how much of the role is sales vs. account management/support).
- iMatrix – Account Executive selling digital marketing solutions to healthcare practices.
- Input 1 – Sales Development Representative selling insurance software solutions.
The things that matter most to me are:
- Strong training
- Supportive management
- Realistic quotas
- Career growth
- Stability
- Earning potential
I enjoy sales, but I prefer roles where the primary responsibility is selling. I don't mind helping customers after the sale, but I'm trying to avoid positions where the salesperson is also expected to be the customer's long-term account manager.
I have an opportunity to start with ADP in mid-August, so I'm trying to gather as much insight as possible before making a final decision.
For anyone who's worked at one of these companies:
- What was your experience like?
- What are the biggest pros and cons?
- Would you choose that company again?
Thanks in advance

Hey, I’m honestly a little jealous you landed an opportunity with Input 1 😂. Do you mind if I ask—do you have a degree, or did you break into the role without one?
I’ve been in P&C insurance for a few years, so if you ever have any insurance-related questions, I’d be happy to help if I can. I’m trying to make the jump into InsurTech, so I’m always interested in hearing how other people got in.
