Pros

Base salary plus high commissions; professional work atmosphere; Laid-out advancement paths

Cons

Sometimes unrealistic expectations by management (Number of cold calls and amount of information gathered. Definitely NOT an "8-5" job. Expected to be in office by 7:30am and would regularly not get home until 7pm.

Not for everyone

Pros

Good compensation plan, broad and competitive product offerings, focus on promoting from within, great initial training and ongoing training resources

Cons

Absolutely no lead gen for senior reps. Competing with recent college grads for opportunities and territory. High turnover rate. Lack of marketing support to individual markets. Company still figuring out how to evolve from a telecom company to cloud/professional services. Still an "every door, every floor" mentality instead of strategic sales/marketing and internal sales collaboration between channel, lead gen, and senior account executives. Paperwork process for selling new customers is a nightmare and very complicated.

Pros

The generous commission package allows one to easily pad their salary. The sales training is some of the best in the industry.

Cons

The office is very micro-managed. You will ALWAYS have a manager at your side no matter how well you are producing. The cold calling can be extremely demanding.
