Pros

Competitive salary. Frontline staff are kind, helpful individuals, who want to see their peers succeed. Training program reasonable prepares new employees for basic functions of position.

Cons

High turnover. Within three months of my employment, I saw multiple employees resign from nearly every department I was in contact with. Management does not encourage development in new employees, and places unreasonable workloads on tenured ones. Tense work environment. Harmful internal politics.

Pros

You get to work with some great brands if you are in the right geographic location.

Cons

The sales team does not get time to sell. You are so immersed in operational activities more than 70% of your time it completely does not allow you time to go out and sell to your clients. This is a sales ops run company not a sales driven company. Biannual sales meetings are a tradition that involves drinking and all around frat like behavior. There is no follow thru from upper management on any promises, sales incentive programs or just general company direction. The financial stability is in constant question. The non-compete issue also makes it more challenging to leave. Remember this is a BONUS plan and not a commission plan. They make it literally impossible for anyone to reach a bonus at the company so they are allowed to keep all of the revenue themselves.

Pros

If you have the frat-boy mentality, then you can succeed or at least survive, even if your job performance is poor.

Cons

The top management! The fraternity-like hazing, sexism and racism! No leadership, no career growth opportunities.
