Pros

This company forces you to get out of your comfort zone and teaches you essential sales skills that work. This company is the epitome of "you get out what you put in". If you are going to be a lazy ass and sit there and not do anything, you will get let go. If you put in the work, they will reward you generously with monthly spiffs and kickers. The culture here is amazing, everyone has fun while they are together, and just the nature of the work makes everyone bond and form close relationships.

Cons

The sales model is very east coast and hard core.

Pros

People that worked there. I would say it's good if it's your first job out of college, or first time in sales. Go for the training, and get out!!!

Cons

micro-managed. Long days-- 7am to 6pm, Role Play, first thing in the morning, daily team meetings to go over what you just went over yesterdays. 50+ doors a day.. They will count your cards when you check back in the office every day. Gas reimbursement is horrible, like really... If you have a territory that is 20-30 miles from the office, its going to suck to report back to the office every day so they can count your business cards, and then drive to your house. HIGH turn over rate.. They will track you, and check in on you every hour, you are given a blackberry. People yelling at each other in the office, and there are so many HR violations, that it's not even funny.. I quit after 3 months, and found another company.

Pros

The sales model is great for an entry level sales proffesional. Mangers really try and help to develop you to move up leadership. VP was very into your everyday business and always looking to help. Two thumbs up.

Cons

It is really hit or miss everyday. Lots of pissed off customers yelling at you and kicking you out. Turn over rate extremely high and managers are constantly afloat. Avery cut throat sales positon, 3 weeks training then its off to the field. 2 months in a row at zero your fired.
