Pros

The company offers great benefits, including 401K, stock options, great medical plan, and a good amount of vacation. It is a very casual atmosphere and always loud and busy.

Cons

There is little recognition for a job well done. At the end of the year, if you hit all of your goals, but your office does not, you see little, if any, compensation. Though they offer a number of vacation days, they make you feel bad every time you take one. You are constantly micro-managed. They count your calls, the length of your calls, and monitor everything. You live on the phone.

Pros

Not much that I can think of, would say its decent pay but they move the goal posts on goals every year so once you get comfortable with your goals and achieving your target to them hitting the reset button and back to square one

Cons

The culture has shifted in a very negative direction. Top performers can still feel boxed in by limited growth opportunities, changing expectations, and compensation structures that do not always reflect actual performance. There is a heavy focus on control, office attendance, and short-term metrics, while trust and morale continue to decline. It can feel political, exhausting, and disconnected from the people actually driving results. Very toxic for capacity reps, they do everything wrong and contstantly are the whipping posts for commercial teams who are always in the right
