      Pros

      Great benefits and insurance Great campus with perks and diverse workforce Nice atmosphere

      Cons

      Salary is very low, bonus is offered every quarter for the first year, but after that it is gone. Product being pitched is the same approach every single call, dialing for dollars gets tiring

      One of the most stressful jobs I've ever had.

      Pros

      Pay is better than a lot of industries in Phoenix. Benefit package started first day and they are good benefits. Vacation time is more than adequate.

      Cons

      The job is very stressful. In order to be in the top percentage you need to walk over your coworkers. Management does not care about employees. We are belittled and downgraded. Incentives were just changed due to the "value" your department has to the company. Shifts are changed roughly every 4 months. They seem to spend their time finding reasons to write you up for "infractions". That way they don't have to pay incentives.
