Pros

The only good parts about this position is some of the people you work with a pretty cool and you get tickets to sporting events

Cons

I don't even know where to begin because there is so many different things wrong with this place. Their overall process of developing you into sales is horrible. They pay you a decent Draw Salary so you stick around. 1 out of 15 people who were in there first year made commission that's not including the 15 people who left the company. They're overall training for the year is terrible. Somehow people get slipped through the cracks and don't get trained properly. Management is terrible and you receive emails saying how much you suck at sales not just to you but to the whole team because everyone sucks at sales. It's very difficult to make it at this position. Some people there do well but the have been there for a long time and those people aren't allowed to help you out because the company doesn't want them helping you out. I feel I gained nothing from working with them but a pay check. Their data is very outdated I had leads that closed their business in 2007.

Pros

Working with PSP is unique because you have firsthand access to Major league sports material. It's cool to say I work in sports publishing. I like my coworkers and those in office with me. We have good camaraderie and keep the office culture lively.

Cons

I do not feel valued by this company. This winter we had three heavy snowstorms and when I asked if I the company would be closing for safety, my boss looked at me and laughed saying "the company doesn't care about that." Turns out many of my coworkers have had to drive through blizzards and awful conditions in order to come in multiple times. Recently the company decided to give us "summer Friday's", except in order to receive the benefit of leaving at 2pm on Friday, we had to come in a half hour earlier everyday all summer to "make sure we're not losing manpower". This doesn't make me feel like you value my time or want to make sure I have a healthy work/life balance. I'm expected to bend over backward and still preform at max capacity. I feel like the company would take an chance to screw over it's employees to cut costs and I don't appreciate working under that type of management style.
