Pros

Bonuses in Account Management can be fantastic. Great AMs can make $100k per year though $60k is more common I'd say. It is a relaxed, casual atmosphere. There is a work hard, play hard mantra that management likes to recite. The hours are great. You can decorate your cubicle. The people you work with are generally great people. Great work experience.

Cons

Lack of integrity. It feels as if management wants us to do right by our advertisers because it makes us look better and prevents us from losing money - not just because it's the right thing to do. That being said they constantly look the other way when ad sales sells a terrible contract or lies to an advertiser. They say they like for anybody in sales to push the envelope. There's little accountability. Little opportunity for upward movement. While bonuses and commissions can be great, base pay is far below the national average for an account manager so if you don't hit bonus it can be hard to get by. I never felt like senior management had a clear vision for the future.

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.
