Pros

Great company culture, very social and excellent earning potential. Own the sales cycle from start to finish so you gain good experience and build good channel relationships with strategic vendors. Also a good work life balance with flexible/hybrid working.

Cons

Account opportunity can be tough as you have to build your own account base from scratch - easier said than done as everyone is trying to do the same.

Thank you for your detailed feedback on a fantastic length of service. You've called out some great benefits of working at Softcat which we're pleased you get to experience, for example it's really important to us that our employees have a good work life balance. We often describe working in Sales at Softcat as like running your own business within a business, giving fantastic levels of autonomy and freedom to run your account base however suits you best, alongside the substantial support and training you'll need to succeed. This gives our sales team really good experience of the end to end sales cycle as you've mentioned, but is also a challenge to have that level of ownership in a competitive environment, Although it's a challenge, we love to empower our Sales people to have that level of control within their account base, and will continue to constantly review the account opportunities for our Sales teams.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're so pleased that you're enjoying the environment we work so hard to create as our unique culture is something we're incredibly proud of. We appreciate working in a Sales role can bring pressure when working towards a target but we love that you've recognised the high reward! There are certainly many perks to be had working as an Account Executive at Softcat.
