Pros

The company promotes a performance-driven culture, but in practice it often feels unsustainable and misaligned with long-term results . There is a strong emphasis on hitting short-term targets, while broader business performance and employee retention appear to take a back seat. Leadership messaging doesn’t always match what employees experience day-to-day, and accountability at the top can feel limited when results fall short. This creates a challenging environment where expectations are high, but support and stability can be inconsistent. The role itself can be very demanding, and turnover is high. It may be a fit for individuals who thrive in fast-paced, high-pressure sales environments, but others may find the structure difficult to sustain long-term.

Cons

Long hours, below market comp and managers who don't know how to manage people. The culture is very weird and people seem on edge..
