Pros

EF has great time off policies and makes sure you get to take time off. The health benefits are also unmatched. I did have the opportunity to work remotely for EF and the flexibility was great. They are not a remote first company

Cons

Pay was not great and ability to grow and move up was very difficult. They claim you pave your own path but don't provide a lot of support to grow in your role. As a sales person my territory was changed every 6 months causing me to have to start from scratch and having the inability to earn my bonus.

Pros

Well structured, comprehensive formal training. Perks and benefits

Cons

Once training is done, you’re pretty much on your own to figure things out. The weekly meetings with your manager end. You spend all day on the phones and there’s not a whole lot of interaction or collaboration going on in the office or across your team. At the end of the day it is a job and the perks and benefits are nice (travel). It just seemed social interaction of any kind, even to ask questions, was discouraged and in fact was viewed as distracting. The cold calling just gets to be tiring after a while, making it hard to stay at the job for longer than 1-2 years. Good entry level sales job, though.
