Pros

If you have a good manager you get a pretty good amount of autonomy. No working weekends or holidays. You get 20 days of PTO which is pretty great. No accrual schedule either so you get it all on January 1st. It's use-it-or-lose-it though since it's not vacation time.

Cons

Income potential used to be six figures until they decided that any average Joe off the street can do our job (WRONG!!). They gave everyone in sales a folder with two pieces of paper: one was a new comp plan worth a FRACTION of what of what we used to make, the other was a letter of resignation. You had to sign one. Overnight we went from respected sales professionals to being treated like entry level unskilled workers.

Pros

The culture is generally positive, and leadership is accessible. Management is willing to meet with employees and listen to concerns. There are talented people throughout the organization, and the work can be rewarding if you enjoy sales and helping businesses grow.

Cons

The biggest challenge is the compensation structure. The company promotes uncapped commissions, but many employees feel earnings are effectively controlled through continually increasing quotas and changing performance targets. Revenue and nominal goals are adjusted so frequently that it can feel like the finish line is always moving. What's particularly frustrating is that the majority of the sales team often struggles to reach 100% of quota, yet goals continue to rise. This creates the perception that compensation expense is being managed through quota increases rather than by allowing top performers to fully benefit from the revenue they generate. Over time, this can discourage high achievers. Employees who consistently perform well are often expected to deliver significantly more results each year just to maintain the same level of compensation. When exceptional performance is met with ever-increasing targets instead of proportionally increasing rewards, motivation suffers.
