Pros

- Decent comp plan - Cheap Products - Free Drinks

Cons

- Be prepared to be micromanaged - Very narrow product set will exclude you from companies looking for total solution - Roll Call every day at 8:30 and you're logged if you're even 1 minute late - Commoditzed product that is all about price at the end of the day - Unrealistic Quotas - 7% monthly turnover - Be prepared to be forced to work through lunch and work late every last day of the month

Pros

Free coffee and soda that's it.

Cons

Where do you even start. The company has no direction and the stock has dropped over $70 in a year. All the cutbacks that they make to cover losses come from reps compensation. You have to clock in and clock out everyday like you work in a candy factory and if you miss clocking in or clocking out they fire you. So many lazy people .They equip you with a laptop from 2017 that barely works and an iPhone SE from 2006. Most of the prospects block the numbers so cogent can't call . They have no one to sell to.
