Pros

Young environment, solid training courses and continued development. Potential to move up in organization. Not a bad industry to start in and next tier jobs have easy ability to generate 100k on. Once you have your pipeline up and running after 8 months or so the job becomes very easy. You can minimally work and still produce.

Cons

Management young and inexperience. Burn and turn, hire, grind, and fire sales model. Demand long hours for success and promotion (at least initially). Big favorites game for promotions, house deals go to manager favorites. Gotta drink the cool-aide to move up.

Pros

There is a ton of training, almost everyday. It's on the technology and selling; if you pay attention you can learn a lot even if you have experience selling. The transition to the 2.0 model should have happened a few years ago because it makes more sense. There is very little door to door anymore, you need to be more strategic in prospecting. We seem to be on a good path, but who knows what will happen when we are acquired by Birch.

Cons

Upper management is nightmare. A lot of yelling at people, clear favoritism, will only train or support the people he likes, doesn't listen to anyone, ever.....just barks orders at us. Intimate and personal relationships with the sales managers is common and is justified by saying "mentoring" them, the list goes on. Every sales rep hates and tries to avoid upper management , but they are still here. Corporate turns a blind eye for some reason. It's just a matter of time before we start suing for all the HR violations.
