Pros

If you’re an alcoholic, you will love this management team.

Cons

This company is not design to keep talented people. Management is useless/not helpful. Micromanagement from VP all the way down! Lead ownership, protection, and distribution will cause new employees to fail. Extremely high turn over, they can't keep new people. Poor healthcare plans at a ridiculous price point. Constant operations issues and poor follow-through with customers. Massive amount of prospecting, cold-calling required. Very transactional type of sale, not a role for a seasoned sales professional.

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.
