Pros

Home Office, Flexibility, Decent Pay

Cons

High pressure sales. If you miss your quota be prepared to be contacted by HR. Cancellations count against your paycheck and goals, even if the dealership has gone out of business. Success is based on your territory and how long it's been left unattended. Limited number of prospects, selling to the same dealers over and over again. Opportunities eventually tap out. Autotrader has a solid product mix that has priced itself out of the market. Competitors offering just as effective or better digital advertising at lower prices.

Pros

Great culture and people. Strong focus on training and development. Lots of opportunity to move around - need to build a strong network within the company Competitive salary and benefits. If you like change, this company will keep you busy and challenged.

Cons

If you don't like a lot of change, this is not the place for you. Direction and focus changes rapidly and regularly. Still a young company so they are figuring out how to retain entrepreneurial culture yet establish consistency and structure. This can be frustrating. Work life balance can be tough in some roles/departments.
