Pros

The ability to make the money you want if you’re willing to put the hours in and sometimes take your work home with you.

Cons

401k match, long hours, and little to no ability to move to another position within the company. It is an at will employer.

Pros

I had the opportunity of interning with the company last summer and absolutely loved it. The culture is truly something I have never been around. Young professionals who come to work each day striving to become better. From the beginning of my internship to being full time the company has treated me very well. I would recommend working for Lower to someone who wants to develop professionally, be challenged to perform, and wanting to be around a fun, upbeat culture while doing it!

Cons

There are definitely some down weeks where your numbers aren't where you'd like them to be. However, these are the times to push yourself and prove your self worth.
