Pros

A great place for young adults to get their first sales experience. They do truly promote and empower young individuals to be leaders - A great "resume builder".

Cons

The unfortunate side of that is lack of experience and even team collaboration in the individuals showrooms, since most college students are lacking experience, and most veterans are petulant over managers being younger/inexperienced. It's unfortunate but the reviews below alluding to favoritism are true, having been for over three years in their management program I can tell you that when you are working under someone who see value in you you excel, however it is luck of the draw which showroom you are sent to and one move can hinder your growth no matter how consistent you are with your work. You will experience cliques, and catty behaviors as most sales organizations have. If you can muscle through you will come out on the other side with some great experience, tough skin, ready for true career. They preach to recruiters that they are happy if they "get 5 years from an MIT", but parade the success stories of the manager who have been "lifers" to give young individuals a sense of security.

Pros

2020 and maybe 21,22 were good after it all went down hill (thanks to AH )

Cons

Everyone is related , friends , family etc. HR is all friends with eveyone there for you cannot be taken serious . So many talented associates leave because they are forced out due to personal preference. Turn over company wide they say is low. However the location I worked in 80 precent of people were 6 month or under ! Yikes !!! Management does not know how to keep and lead their team , instead they micro manage , make up new rules that they do not follow after a few weeks and they always seem stressed. Oh and bonus program is constantly restructured . They present it as new opportunities however it’s really for them to pay less. This company always pays very low percentage and you have to jump through hoops that are on fire to make a bonus. And I wasn’t some employee who worked 6 months and quit. I was someone making 90k yearly for several years. This is just a reality. Higher management needs traning asap. And insurance gets worse every year !
