Can sometimes be brutal as far as KPIs are concerned (but it's a sales job, so go figure) Some sales associates were given really difficult markets to work in with very little assistance

Pros

-Forward-thinking. Young, but experienced and passionate professionals that are not hesitant to try new tactics to ensure the company prospers -Limited bureaucracy -Ability to be an integral part of multiple new initiatives -Heavily rewarded for hard-work and ambitious attitude - Vital knowledge in the spectrum of research methodologies across all industries. Really see the full cycle of supporting prospective clients. -Unique mentoring from Development Directors that want to see you succeed

Cons

Because Hanover is growing at such a fast rate it is hard to put a definitive professional development plan in place. While entry-level employees receive a modest training early in positions, next-level positions lack a structured plan to strive for and achieve a registered skill set.
