Pros

Wonderful training, managers and fellow employees willing to help if needed, and great sales experience.

Cons

The computers that you write orders on are unpredictable and cause a lot of frustration in the sales process. The Products they offer no longer work. There are other advertising options at a better value if you are a business owner. Due to this it is now a media company with a portfolio of products to sell but they are all products that could be purchased elsewhere and for less with better specialized service. The company was created to sell yellow page advertising and that is a product that is rarely used now. The websites they sell are not well designed and the hosting fees are more expensive than if you had a quality web designer create a specialized site for you needs. The SEO they sell would be better managed by a firm that just specializes in SEO. Their products are not the best value for a business owner anymore and because of this i do not feel it is a good place to sell for and feel good about what you are selling.

hibu (Yellowbook) is a great place to work! I am newer to the position bit it has been by far the best company I have worked for! They pay is great and the contest that they drive you to do better! There is a gym on site to use and the management team is great if I ever have a question someone is always there to help! Your work schedule is very flexible! It definitely feels like a big family!

Cons

Sometimes the days can run slow because you are on the phone all day and you have to stay focused.
