Pros

There is a lot of opportunity to grow quickly and earn credentials for your resume. The work you do will have direct impact on the business. The people CHR hires are generally young and a fun group to spend time with. Good benefits.

Cons

The office I worked in had extremely high turnover, so a lot of positions are filled by inexperienced people. Everybody was given an unrealistic workload and expected to consistently achieve growth and provide great service. The support structures in place are weak at best and you will often find yourself performing duties that are outside your role's responsibilities just to stay afloat. The industry itself is fairly brutal and overall it's a thankless job. At first the salary offered seems fair but the pay provided did not justify the amount of work done and raises were nonexistent and non-negotiable. Account Management and Operations do not earn commission on any accounts.

Pros

IN THE PAST... potential to earn based on sales commissions was high, unlimited sales opportunities, fun environment!

Cons

Entire management has drastically changed directions. Went into hyper micro management mode. NO longer does the company value it's employees or the business relationships. The great sales force employees have all left -mostly forced out because company installed massive limitations on the leads one could pursue and virtually eliminated any incentives to develop business relations...sales people are given metrics to meet that are out of touch with reality. The few who managed to land a decent business account who meet the metric...are immediately forced into yet another higher metric....which kills the initial commissions promised. Employees who remain are absolutely miserable now!

Pros

A lot of room for growth, benefits are so/so. Good atmosphere. Laid back for the most part, playful. A lot of responsibility delegated (if you're a good employee) early on.

Cons

Pay is low. Zero work/life balance. Training is basically non-existent. You are thrown right in. Leadership leaves a lot to be desired. Not an easy place to work as a woman. "Frat boy" culture.
