Pros

Opportunity for Advancement. Freedom to run your own business. Selling a product that really helps employers and job seekers. Learning and training. Fun - high pay and morale. Hard work equals advancement and opportunity. Sure you have to put thew work in - nothing is handed to you, but you are rewarded handsomely for top performance. Where else can folks with minimal sales experience come in, make $75-100K and then go lead a team of sales reps in less than 24 months? You need to practice and study - this is a career , not a job. If you are not willing to invest in yourself why should CB?

Cons

Dealing with Owner Companies - McClatchy, Gannett, Tribune. They ran their own companies into the ground - leave CB (their only real money maker laft) alone

Pros

Culture was amazing before it was acquired by private equity.

Cons

The culture was great (before private equity), which made career advancement a game of social politics.
