      Pros

      You get to work with some great brands if you are in the right geographic location.

      Cons

      The sales team does not get time to sell. You are so immersed in operational activities more than 70% of your time it completely does not allow you time to go out and sell to your clients. This is a sales ops run company not a sales driven company. Biannual sales meetings are a tradition that involves drinking and all around frat like behavior. There is no follow thru from upper management on any promises, sales incentive programs or just general company direction. The financial stability is in constant question. The non-compete issue also makes it more challenging to leave. Remember this is a BONUS plan and not a commission plan. They make it literally impossible for anyone to reach a bonus at the company so they are allowed to keep all of the revenue themselves.

      Pros

      - Decent base salary if this is your first job out of University. - Free Swag - WFH Fridays - Smart and helpful colleagues

      Cons

      - Incredibly stressful, do NOT take this job if you do not have a high stress tolerance. - A ton of competing priorities that almost always require quick/immediate action. - You get a ton of emails and are expected to be able to pull up and reference any of them at a moments notice. - Constant whiplash between doing deep, focused work (presentation/catalogs) that have a ton of details and require your full attention versus quick/rapid fire tasks that you must address immediately. There were days where I was working on one presentation all day and couldn't get it done because of how much I was getting pinged to resolve other issues. - To get promoted you must essentially do the job of 2 people (CSC and PSA). Beyond that, there is no real career progression unless you want to go into sales. - Management always says to raise your hand if you need help. But when you ask for help, there is always pushback in the form of others having more task hours than you. - CEO took away one of the WFH days. When Qualtrics had negative feedback he essentially said "If you don't like it - then leave". He is a "Do as I say, not as I do." type of leader. - Workload and responsibilities are not commiserate to the salary.
