Pros
-Casual dress code/ atmosphere -Easily access to Merch Mart by train -Great training program for new hires to get them comfortable with being on the phones- a lot of great reinforcement training -Occasional fun contests for Sports tix/ PTO / company outings -Sales trip to Mexico/warm location in Jan if you hit your quota for the year -They offer a top-performing software in the market, making it easier to promote
Cons
-Not much room for upward movement -Upper management plays favorites... preferential treatment is almost encouraged -All territories are not created equal -Frequently ridiculous expectations to meet/ exceed quota, for Reps and Associates alike -Market is very saturated- Unless you are working in Enterprise, do not expect to get the greatest accounts -Expectation to hit a certain amount of "tasks" regardless of your actual performance day by day -Frequently difficult to talk on the phones due to an open-floor structure with absolutely no noise control -Being there at your desk 9 hours a day, 5 days a week becomes incredibly stagnant and boring, with nothing but a really nice game room (which you get bored with easily) to distract you from your monotonous work
