Pros

The program actually works for clients if they use it Gym membership Relaxed dress code Close to public transportation Consistent hard work does go recognized if your manager isn't threatened by you

Cons

Constant change Management tries to spin things in a positive way but is really only talking down to employees and convinced that we are that stupid to believe them Company only cares about sales and service is a distant second High pressure sales tactics are highly encouraged Sales script is designed to scare potential clients into buying a lot earlier than really needed CEO goes on the same rant every month about a fake term he created called "Athleadership" Inside sales reps are instructed to convince families that they requested a call from NCSA when they really didn't and due to a partnership were able to obtain their contact information Every meeting by an executive gets rescheduled and usually within 30 minutes until meeting time When sales are slow they buy inside sales reps lunch to keep them in house instead of letting them leave for lunch Pay is a joke unless you are an outside sales rep "Work in sports" = revolving door with extremely high turnover rate that management doesn't care about. They will always find the next sucker to buy into that term

Pros

The people are the secret sauce of NCSA - it's a great team that wants win, innovate, and grow together. Lots of opportunities to provide feedback and connect with leadership.

Cons

The work can be challenging and very demanding.

Pros

- Work from home - Get to talk about sports every day, and getting to learn about new sports - Manager was awesome, but I may have been lucky - I heard bad things about other managers! - There are about 10 teams of Recruiting Coordinators, all performing the same role, and each team being managed differently. Not sure if this is a pro or con

Cons

- Making around 100 calls/day - Leads are technically not cold, but they might as well be - lots of families didn't realize what they were signing up for - Over half of the leads in my funnel every day were recycled, i.e. we have called them in the past and they were not interested. Sometimes leads were recycled upwards of 10 times - Making phone calls from 9:00 am - 6:00 pm local time - often calling families at 7 -8 pm their time - Will likely be flagged if you go more than 20 minutes without making a call unless communicating with your manager
