Pros
Work life balance can be good.
Cons
-Very low base pay.. 40k -Good old boys environment for senior leadership within the company. No chance of advancement or getting promoted. -Another review on here mentioned it was like selling penny stocks... That's exactly what it's like. You can prospect and call all day, as soon as they find out you're selling cable advertising, they aren't buying, and you're looked at as if you are bottom of the barrel.. If they do, you're getting a fraction of the budget that they spend with competitors. -They cannot catch up on the digital advertising.. which is disheartening considering the size of the company and the available resources. Smaller digital vendors are eating their lunch in every aspect from delivery, reporting, and client user interface. -The new leader of Effectv, Pooja is wildly unqualified for her position. She has no visibility within the company, no communication, and no clear path for Effectv's success. Her predecessor James Rooke did a great job of leading the company, and she's managed to run it in to the ground in less than a year. -HR has no presence within the organization. They moved all of their payroll and HR services over to a third party. I haven't seen or heard from anyone in HR in years.. honestly. - The company has just recently set a threshold on a spending requirement for clients, which if not met, will not be able to do business with us anymore. That's correct.. They have said it publicly that they know they are losing money by doing this. So what ever little money you were able to get from some clients will be gone. -If you want to bust your butt every day and only make 50-60k a year in an outside sales job then go for it.
