Pros

Very good, entry level people and the company heavily invests in on boarding reps the right way.

Cons

The culture is highly compartmentalized and many mid-level managers have their private fiefdoms. My team specifically was handed mandates and rules that didn't apply to other teams under the same Sales Director. I was terminated without cause based on something that was non-work related and happened during my off time. The CFO told the entire company that we all needed to "... make our own raises..." when asked about a basic, cost of living increase. This was days after the company literally spent billions on purchasing their nearest competitor.

Pros

People and the overall environment is a positive one. If you do your part, definite long term career potential. It’s not easy- but stable, growing. Worth serious consideration for early career looking for sales experience with a great training program. Also good for mid-career consideration if base salary isn’t the primary reason you are in sales.

Cons

Very fast pace that doesn’t suit everyone. If you are looking for easy or just a job to “hang out”, this probably isn’t the right spot for you.

Pros

Remote work and Flexible Time Off

Cons

Low pay. Minimal to no career growth. Constant leadership turnover. Conflicting priorities from the top with little strategic direction. Endless “do more with less” mentality and burnout. Mandatory culture and positivity “training” instead of fixing the problems creating poor culture. The company has become reactive, chaotic, and disconnected from the employees who keep it running. Current CEO drove down stock price and eradicated worker morale. Terrible leadership.
