Pros
Some of Cbeyond's product lines like Cloud based PBX, Cloud server & back-up, even high speed Fiber internet are new and exciting products to sell. The company also spends good money on the office facility (at least the Oakbrook, IL location anyway) The two week training course was also very helpful to me from a standpoint of they train you on how to run a sales presentation, useful in any sales job and the trainers actually care to see that you are adequately trained.
Cons
The WORST management I have ever seen at an organization. Good Ol Boy (or, Good Ol Girl) mentality when talking about promotion. EXTENSIVE micromanagement expecting unrealistic numbers instructing to knock doors of prospects (old school approach) that HATE the brand when most say, "I will never have Cbeyond again". Lack of post sales support and bad service has resulted in tens of thousands of ill fated web reviews of Cbeyond service left by customers exposes ALL OR MOST of your newly interested prospects to the horrors other businesses have had to deal with which kills your POTENTIAL deal and flushes all your hard work, money spent on gasoline (which is NOT at all fully or properly compensated for), and your career at a failing company, DOWN THE TOILET...Don't make the same mistake I did and fall for their lies saying you could hit 6 figures and above in your first year. Its virtually impossible. The top rep at the company was near 90k and that was only because he had a tech vendor spoon feeding him 'free deals'...Maybe you will get lucky. Maybe you will make some bucks but I promise you will HATE your job AND your manager and that's OK by Cbeyond because they know this will happen, you will move on, quit or get terminated, and they will hire another "You'...CHURN AND BURN BABY.
