Pros

Make a lot of money quickly Can advance quickly

Cons

No work life balance, constant moving of the goal post, very sketchy way of paying out commissions, huge turnover in every sales office, cult like culture. There were 2-3 token POC in the entire executive sales force. I’ve been told by multiple recruiters that they find it impossible to hire diverse staff with management and if they wrote down the real reasons they could told for refusal we’d be sued. They fire people for breathing wrong and don’t give new reps time to ramp up. They have gone on a huge firing spree lately to avoid doing layoffs and even our project Managers have no remote capabilities. They will hold the money you’ve already earned once separated.

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.
