      Pros

      Lots of opportunities to take on projects and present to management. As a woman in the workplace I appreciate all the guidance I've received from the senior level female leadership.

      Cons

      The company is still trying to grow from a small company into a larger one but is very good at taking criticism of that fact and trying to make it better.

      Pros

      Easy place to land a job. The screening process is made to look rigorous, but it's just long and designed more so for you to interview them and verify how much you're willing to sacrifice for a job. My co-workers that were also hired on as sales associates were awesome, and had great personalities as well. Its also a good quick filler to have a job while using field time to look for another job. There are also a few individuals every now and then that realize the scheme, and are willing to exploit others for personal growth. As a return, they find a good fit with CBeyond and are given opportunities to move and advance as the organization grows.

      Cons

      The compensation plan is not explained as forthrightly as it should be. Because of the economy and because of the slow reimbursement of expenses and commissions, desperate recent college grads and unemployed young adults are taken advantage of as the company manipulates their efforts as mostly a direct source of advertising, under the guise of outside b2b sales. Those who enter the sales associate role with some experience realize the mistreatment earlier, and end up quitting or using field time to interview and find another job. Those who are too naive stick it out to be beaten on for months longer, and once they build up some decent resume filling work experience, they finally just straight up quit and look for another job. This organization is almost more like a pyramid scheme, never fully paying off the commissions that they promise, and never in the appropriate time frame.
