Pros

Honestly it's not what it was 6 months ago, a lot of people leaving left and right because of the constant state of change and over bearing management. They've doubled the amount of managers and are giving people pointless roles for the sake of creating in unnecessary hierarchy. How many managers do you need between you and your manager? It's simple, make opportunities and close deals. They're getting lost in trying to figure out the perfect formula when it wasn't broken to begin with. They got rid of a lot of great employees and just as many more quit due to the company's changing ways every month of two. I used to love working here but now over half the floor is looking at other companies to work for.

Cons

THEY HAVE NEW HIRES SIGN A "I won't quit for an entire year otherwise I will be required to pay $7,000 back to the ACTIVE... So they're obviously worried about people leaving once they realize it's not as advertised. I've NEVER heard of a company requiring new hires to sign something like that. It's a threat. "We'll penalize you 7 GRAND if you don't like it here and leave to work somewhere else..."
