Pros

It is a young and energetic atmosphere. OK job out of school but it will get old fast once you finish the 4-month training program (which is pretty nice). They take you out to Chicago for the first two weeks (all expenses paid).

Cons

After the orientation phase in Chicago it all goes downhill. You go through several tedious rotations that require you to call and track shipments for about 4 months. I think they are revamping the training because it is pointless and wasteful at times.

Pros

Strong company culture with great employees, leagues and events. If you're not in sales you probably have a decent and pretty easy job. If you are in sales and if you call the right person at the right time you could get lucky. It's more about getting lucky than being good at sales.

Cons

Pretty terrible compensation and benefits package, long hours, no opportunity for advancement and awful sales management.

Pros

The interview process was great (thanks to Mr. Sun), relaxed atmosphere, casual dress code, no micromanaging.

Cons

River North location is not ideal, low salary, expensive medical benefits, sub par 401K package, team leads, supervisors & managers are young and lack experience & knowlege of how to manage people. The entire company is extremely sales driven, policies & incentives are geared towards & favors the sales department.
