Pros

The fact you get a check.

Cons

Words can not describe how miserable and toxic this company has become. Management bullies employees into working 12 hr. days up to 6 or even 7 days a week. I work in a dept. that has twice the workload now compared to only one year ago, and not one other person has been added to our dept. BECAUSE they can't keep employees. They absolutely run people off. The saddest part, I want to find another job, but I don't have enough time in my day to day life to even look for something else. When I finally get home, I'm exhausted and I've been working 7 days a week. I've missed family birthdays, holidays and just weekend activities because it is expected we work a ridiculous amount of days and hours. We can't even look at our phones or even go to the bathroom without being shamed. It is a miserable company environment and I honestly think they treat their employees like dirt, it is shameful!!!! I mentioned double the workload on my dept and because of mistakes I had to sign a gotcha notice for the percentage of mistakes I had in one week, who doesn't realize there are going to be errors when you overwork your employees. I think the Employment Commission should know how long we have been putting up with the bullied environment! In other states this wouldn't be allowed!!

Pros

- Base salary - PTO - Awesome colleagues - $1 Medical PPO offering

Cons

- Upper leadership seem to not value the operations department as much as they do with sales. They are not consistent as well, which causes them to change the entire department's job description, expectations, & commission structure every few months. Change is good but huge change every 3-4 months is so exhausting. - They overload you with too many clients to handle while increasing the number of internal calls. When asking for support from sales or middle management, its typically a hard negotiation or non-existent. Expect to work way over 40 hours/week and juggle 10-20+ clients at a time. - Sales will oversell on product & implementation expectation which makes the job 1000% harder. Turnover with sales is extremely high so don't expect for even the best reps stay as they either leave, get fired because quota was not met, or the new manager will cut them if they're "not the vibe". You get left with the newbies who does not know how to sell or support you when you need them. - Every role in this company has high turnover in general. Making it very hard to cross collaborate with other departments as everyone is either extremely swamped or new to the role and cannot support as well, - Being forced to go to Oklahoma for training every year, sometimes twice a year.
