Pros

great product to offer with positive vision.

Cons

Basically hired on as a "scab" to push digital sales reporting to an out of market supervisor (over 1,000 miles away) and workig at the local media outlet to try and sell the same/very similar products as the local sales representatives. The local office gave us ROE that basically prohibited us from calling on any prospect the the local sales rep had ever called on (that was basically in their database).

Pros

Flexible work environment - hybrid

Cons

Heavy workload, way below market compensation for the amount of responsibility, very limited advancement opportunities & uneven workload distribution among teams. In my experience, leadership made repeated statements about promotion opportunities in career growth that ultimately did not materialize. I felt that expectations were set that weren’t followed through on, which made it incredibly difficult to trust leadership. Transparency and follow through on career development could be significantly improved.
