Employee Review of Cbeyond - Check out more reviews of working at Cbeyond

I must say that based on some of the prior negative reviews posted about Cbeyond I feel there are some incredible resume fluffers who lied their nuts off during their interview with Cbeyond. Much like the rest of you optimistic recent college graduates out there; in 2006 I had painted a picture that due to earning a B.A. I should receive a 65k salary+bonuses job in advertising and get my own private helicopter ride each morning to avoid the magical traffic that we are all plagued by. Frankly if you want to make 28k for five years, enjoy working unpaid hours at an Ad agency, but I personally wasn’t interested in dealing with those sad bastard Ad agency pay rates. In 2006 Cbeyond took me under its wing and armed me with the skills and knowledge to learn how to sell to businesses. Don’t get me wrong the first two months were really hard. However after I proved to my superiors I could do this job with a hand behind my back, life got pretty easy. I received rapid advancement, and although I’m no longer with Cbeyond I owe these folks a handshake for nearly everything I own today, my house, cars, and the job the resume building skills I received here.
Thanks to Cbeyond I got to travel on three company paid vacations, met Kool Keith while on a company trip to Jamaica, and get the experience needed to own the title I poses today. Trust me though, if you can’t sell, this isn’t the gig for you. I saw probably 30 people in my time at Cbeyond who lied their asses off to get this job and they failed miserably. If you have some seeds, you’re competitive, and you don’t want to eat Ramen for the rest of your life this is a great after college opportunity. Trust me when I say that if you can climb the ranks for two years with Cbeyond you will be able to make a really solid living. Like any sales job, the hoops you jump through for the first two months is awful, but well worth it if you are armed with a solid shell.
