Pros

Th competitive pay and benefits; comes with a signing bonus while you get your feet wet, company match kicks in right away on 401k, medical and dental very good. co-worker support and cohesion,

Cons

They bring you in to use you up then kick you out. There was only one employee on the sales team that was there longer than a year and she had bounced around in the company. It seems set up to be dead end within a year, give you quota targets that in such a competitive industry your bound to fizzle out, managerial support is non existent.

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.
