Pros

Great benefits, incentives, beautiful work environment, tons of opportunities to make friends and be social. Commission structure is great if you are good at sales and meet your quota. Can make a lot of money

Cons

You are just a number to them and you are expected to perform like a show pony. Mostly female company and employees so it can get a little catty at times. Very monotonous job and not very fulfilling. You can learn a good amount of sales skills though.

Pros

Job started out great and making good commission Loved many of my colleagues Office perks were very nice

Cons

Commission structure frequently changing, leadership started making changes that put team in positions that felt unethical and used commission structure to pressure team to comply. Outside sales team would mislead customers to sign up and then when they got to our team and realized the reality of what they were getting in services/exposure it was up to us to save them or it was taken out retention commission.
