Pros

At this time I cannot think of any pros.

Cons

They will mislead you into thinking this is the best job you will ever have. They will lie to you how they work and their commission structure. They will lie to you about the culture of the place which by the way is the worst culture I had ever been in. They will lie to you about your salary. You're thinking your being paid a salary but you're really being paid hourly which means you need to put in at least 50 hours in the office. They will lie to you about giving candidates referral bonuses, it comes out of your paycheck! What! And lastly they will lie to you about parking. They don't pay for parking. You're in the middle of Westwood, fend for yourself! They won't care if your car gets towed, your tires get slashed or anything to that extent. By the way, I've witnessed all those things happens to employees cars. In my short stay at this horrible place I saw 9 people leave. HUGE TURNOVER due to Management. Upper management is just awful. Car salesman training. Beware of this company. I would take ANY offer before I go here!

Pros

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Cons

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
