Pros

Recognizable brand and high-quality product. American made.

Cons

Extreme micromanagement despite explicitly stating in every interview (6 in total) that I don't thrive under those conditions. Company vehicle is an outdated Prius with over 100K miles and an interior camera to track and monitor your every move. Zero flexibility — you're expected to be on the road every single day with no option for office-based work. Constant turnover in all Market Rep roles. It’s a revolving door, which makes it nearly impossible to build the kind of long-term relationships this business model depends on. When I voiced concerns and suggested leadership invest in retention to stabilize sales relationships, I was labeled a “toxic” employee. Following that, they set unrealistic KPIs — clearly designed to force me to quit or be terminated. Leadership is bloated and disorganized: too many directors, ineffective middle management. No idea who to trust with any issues, as there is rampant backstabbing. Daily social media posting requirements on multiple platforms — a task that falls far outside the typical scope of a sales role. Bonuses are based on total team performance, not individual contribution, making it difficult to feel recognized or rewarded for personal success. If you want ANY semblance of work-life balance, look elsewhere.

Pros

Pretty and new office space

Cons

Kind of like a cult. Everyone there has the notion that they are better than others. Your internship consists of pretending to look busy for 8 hours.
