Pros

The training and support is amazing. It could be viewed as micro management at first, but if you're doing the right things, the reigns loosen up. My experience has been almost completely positive in terms of work environment, great team atmosphere, and moving quickly along the progression model.

Cons

I see two significant cons: the amazingly long hours and the pay structure. The company has recently awarded Bay Area employees a cost of living adjustment, which certainly helps, and if you move along the progression model, base increases are regular. Obviously in sales, the more you sell, the more you make, but the commission structure is not the best in the industry. Meeting quota is not enough to live on. The long days are highly structured, and in order to get everything done that needs to be done, time has to be put in on the back end, which can mean long days get even longer.

Pros

It wouldn't allow me to put my actual last year (2012) but during my 2 year employment, I made great money. I made president's club both years and regular saw 7K checks with some topping 10K. I used to win nice watches, luxury sunglasses, skydiving trips, box seats at Lakers games, box seating at really cool concerts, etc.

Cons

LONG hours...I would arrive at 7am for the morning meeting. we would then have team meeting at 8am and we would hit the road at 9am. We wouldn't get back until 5:30-6:00pm BUT nobody complained because we were paid for it. Nobody cared what gas prices were because we were more than compensated (I forgot to mention Dom, the big boss, would but gas cards and hand those out just because you had a nice suit on. Dude was such a good leader....eveyone wanted to do good for Dom. Why? I/ couldn't explain it...ther than he knew how to lead and that involves getting people to buy into your plan. We did. And Dom had that division leading the company each and every month. Two of the best years of my career and it happened in the very beginning. I will always miss my time here. what a con. lol. it was a great job
