Pros

Well, theres a television in the office. Occasionally, you'll go out for drinks after your 15 hour day.

Cons

Okay, my experience in a nutshell: I was hired as a "Logistics Account Executive". I soon found out I would answer to a Logistics Account Executive and work for him. It became very apparent that the morale was low and that people were either "leaving" or being "let go" week after week. I would ask questions but never be given a straightforward answer. I made at least 100 calls a day, worked diligently, and never got thanked for it. When the time came to "go out on my own", I wasn't prepared. I was required to meet minimum sales goals week after week that seemed unobtainable. I was given absolutely no direction. At one point I was told "Just keep calling... it'll come." I found that to be poor advice to say the least. There was no extensive training, there was no help from "superiors". About 5 weeks after I went out on my own and didn't meet expectations, I was let go. It wasn't for lack of effort, I was one of the first in the office and at times, the last out of the office. No one cared. $$$$ or hit the road.

Amazing work hard-play hard culture, plenty of opportunities for advancement, and really friendly coworkers. The job isn’t for everyone, but for those wanting to dig in, there’s so much opportunity for success here.

Cons

Not many holidays due to the nature of the industry

Pros

Frat House environment if that's what you're into.

Cons

Where do I even start.... My first week there the sales manager, whose account I was supposed to look over and be trained by, was gone for the whole week. The desk spot they put me at was next to this JBL party box, making it virtually impossible to communicate over the phone. When you're in the training phase you literally do all the work for the account manager, then you're expected to make cold calls to people that want no part in TQL. When you do get someone on the phone and make a sale, you wont be seeing any of that money. They have a commission draw set up where you have to be making a certain amount of revenue before you can make commission- thus leaving you to the measly 43k salary. These recruiters and managers SELL you a false dream, the turnover rate there is astronomical for a reason. They will hire anyone that'll learn the system, use them for labor for 6 months, cut them when they don't meet the ridiculous KPI metrics. To be actually successful here you either have to work near 60+ hours a week for YEARS waking at 4am to "snipe" accounts that have been released due to inactivity, or be handed an account by a retiring SR level manager. RUN from this company!
