Pros

If you want to sell advertising for a living it is not the worst place to be, preferrably on the new media side where your skills will be transferrable to other companies later.

Cons

Rapidly declining print market, second rate online products, disjointed departmental and management relationships, poor infrastructure.

Pros

Team atmosphere, support from management is strong, good benefits. Best initial training I have ever had.

Cons

Dying industry, high customer attrition rate of approx. 25%. Weak expense reimbursement. You need to put in several years buildign business until you can realy make money. As a new employee you start with a really weak book of business, if you are not a top sales person you can spend an eternity looking for those big accounts that will pay good commisions. Very high turnover, in my training class of 25, only 1 or two remain to this day.

Pros

The benefits are awesome with great health insurance, vacation and personal days offering flexiblity. The territories are protected and the sales reps and managers in my office are very fun, genuinely nice people. The compensation in a major market can be very lucrative. The product is also good with value that is easily proved.

Cons

We traveled three consecutive months of the year plus 2-3 more weeks during the year and were given very low compensation during these months. There was occasionally some disorganization and lack of managerial support during this time. The paperwork can be very time-consuming and the lack of automation is frustrating.
