Pros

You have the ability to set your own hours(other than meetings). Valuable sales training for both print and online advertising. Mentoring program in place.

Cons

Lofty goals that are unrealistic. Mandatory meetings if quotas aren't being met by your co-workers. Promotions are available to you if you go out drinking with "the boys". Management rewarded to slightly above average reps. Top performers discouraged or denied management, because they are too valuable in the field. Double standards are the norm. President's Club is given to favorites over the people whom earned it. One year's record becomes the next year's quota.

Pros

autonomy, product is seemingly good

Cons

Overall a terrible sales org, commission structure is nonsense and very low percent of reps are on the high tier, including reps that are top performers being on the mid or low tier commission. You are responsible for prospecting, closing, and account management so job gets harder the longer you are there. Force you into long meetings so the VP can show everyone Christopher Voss masterclass videos that are irrelevant. Sales contests where the reward is literally 5 dollars. Training is completely disconnected from how the job actually is, even down to the tech stack they teach you. Sales planning does nothing and does not provide any new leads or any sales tools that work. They do not even have a list of discovery questions to provide you. No one uses any of their provided tech stack you just have to figure out your own processes with no support. Very low base salary which they will lower if you get put on PIP. Extremely unstructured PIP program with no concrete numbers or explanation for how to get off of PIP. Extreme favoritism at the managerial level.
