Pros

Great contacts, experience and very fulfilling. Your input is valued and the perks of receiving products and gifts and attending events is very high.

Cons

Long hours, high pressure and very high expectations. The compensation is very little in comparison to living in New York City and the job.

Pros

Sales team is super bonded over terrible senior management.

Cons

Executive leadership team is not equipped to manage high performing sales people. They mange first year sales reps the same as they manage 20+ years of experience sales reps. 5 members of the sales team have voluntarily walked off the team in the last 2 months and no changes have been made to leadership. Leadership said they were changing our comp plan mid year, but wouldn’t telling us what it was changing to (essentially asking us to sell like normal without telling us what we’d be paid).
