Pros

Good work life balance and good pay. 150K+ earners 2 years out of college. 200K potential 3 years into the job if you are a top performer

Cons

Metrics can be annoying - 40+ sales calls a month, have to be in office twice a week from 7:30am - 5:00pm almost no exceptions

Pros

The only benefit is that they pay well

Cons

Extreme micromanagement, lots of big egos, only promote from within so they can “brainwash” employees at entry level (yes, that was often openly admitted from C-suite)
