Pros

They provide free criticism and verbally abuse their employees

Cons

Low rates of pay. Tons of uncompensated overtime requiring people to work weekends and sleep overnight in conference rooms. Management wastes money without looking into the products causing hundreds of millions in wasted profits.

Training is Lacking, Good benefits

Pros

There is room to grow, the benefits are good, is a stable sales job.

Cons

There isn't much training for new hires. You have to do a lot of trial and error, and figure things out on your own. There's no curriculum in place on learning sales or learning the vast product knowledge. They have 1000s of products and it would take years to learn this or scratch the service which makes it harder to be a value to customers.
