Great for a starter job, but not a long term career if you have drive and ambition
Pros
- fun environment; everyone is the same age - constant happy hours - red bull flip cup - interview is easy; as long as you're outgoing and likable you have a job - you make great friends - AFTER you're promoted, you have opportunity to make a lot of money depending.
Cons
- there's no growth; you're either an account manager or a recruiter; you might get 'lead' or 'senior' attached to your title but you're still doing the same job - management is only promoted from within; they never bring outsiders. That could be good for those who work hard and want to get promoted and gives them a better chance, but that also means the company is stale and you never get any new perspective. A lot of the upper management in corporate is also dominantly male frat bros - if you're not delivering results or hitting your number they force you to quit - it's all a numbers game. You're driven to the brinks to deliver numbers and follow a system but you're never acknowledged for the hard work you do - it's sales; honestly this should come as no surprise, where it's a numbers game, so what sets sales a part from everywhere else is the company and their values and insight global definitely falls short - sometimes I found management incompetent; yeah they had 'great' personalities, but they just didn't know how to be managers, had no strategy, no guidance, no mentorship - their main goal is to make sure no one quits so they don't lose their bonuses
