Pros

Although its a call center environment, it is spacious, professional and they have great marketing tools and technology at your finger tips which makes your job so much easier. They promote heavily from within and have great award ceremonies, awesome sales contests with great prizes like ipads, grills, trips etc.they also order lunches in for the employees alot! ,and most of the sales reps are great people to know and work with.

Cons

It's a very structured environment which can be difficult for some people. About 10% of the sales reps are always complaining about everything which can bring others down. Yet they are the first to hop in line for the free lunches, take the turkey and gifts home at the holidays, and take the many prizes. It does get annoying. And most of them (like the few that wrote negative reviews on this site) have been working there for many many years, which I think says a lot!

Pros

Remote work and the clients are very nice to work with.

Cons

In my experience, the company's compensation practices lacked transparency and accountability. When employees asked questions about how their earnings, bonuses, or compensation were calculated, clear answers were often difficult to obtain. Decisions affecting employee pay were made without adequate explanation, and requests for clarification frequently went unresolved. What I found particularly concerning was the apparent disconnect between employee compensation outcomes and management compensation. Employees regularly experienced reduced bonuses or earnings, while management and executive leadership appeared largely unaffected by the same business decisions. This created the perception that the financial impact of those decisions was being borne primarily by employees rather than those making them. After repeatedly seeking explanations and receiving few meaningful answers, I lost confidence in the fairness and transparency of the compensation process.
