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.
