Pros
Growth - I cannot even begin to articulate how much I have grown both professionally & personally because of this organization and the guidance of the current management team Culture - The Corporate Athlete Program is great. Call me crazy but there's something kind of fun about getting your butt out there with your teammates after a long day of work and completing something when you feel like you're too tired to do. Our Leadership Development Program consists of unlimited book resources to help you get better (I'll be honest, not a big reader, but these book are actually interesting and effective) as many OOO's as we need/want and daily on the job coaching. You constantly are going to know how you stand and what you need to do to get better. When we win, we celebrate & we celebrate big! $$$ - you are paid for your results. With uncapped commission, sounds cheesey, but the sky is the limit! Not to mention the occasional cash prizes for contests, lots of free company dinners, celebrations for milestones. It's Fun! - Yeah, there's a lot of things that go wrong, almost on a daily basis, sometimes twice a day... but it's fun to see and hear how we are positively impacting our clients and our consultants. It's fun to close deals and celebrate those victories with your co-workers who become your best friends. And it's pretty cool to be apart of something bigger than yourself.
Cons
It's sales. It's stressful, extremely stressful at times. You're deailing with people; people lie. You're uncomfortable on a daily basis but hey, you hopefully learn to embrace that feeling. If you're comfortable, you're NOT growing. It's hard to see the positive in that during the chaotic days but it's fun looking back and realizing the person you are becoming. When your company goal is to be the best, you make sacrifices. Those sacrifices sometimes look like long days or answering a call on PTO.
