Pros

Money. By the end of my first year, I'm predicting somewhere close to $85k. If I were to actually stay for a 2nd year, it would be over $100k. The job is easy because all you have to do is pick up the phone are you'll make money.

Cons

The phrase "Work/life balance" is one that doe not exist in this company. When I was hired, they said I would work every 3rd Saturday and, in those weeks, I would get a weekday off. However, since my hiring group has been done with training, we have been scheduled every other Saturday with no week day off. They basically cut our days off by 25% so we work six days/week every other week. Instead of having eight days off every four weeks, we only have six. You have no time for life outside of work. Unfortunately, management can't seem to comprehend why this is important because work is really the only thing they care about in their lives. This seems to all be based off an unspoken culture guideline of 'sink or swim'. Employees are not an asset to this company but solely a mere commodity. Something that just comes and goes. If the employee can't figure out the job, then they are let go or left to flounder until they finally quit. This is a high-pressure, pushy, transactional sales job. All you are told do to is get the business, close the sale, get the money.

Pros

I have over 10 yrs sales experience and have worked in a variety of work environments. Working for this company has been a life changing experience. When I interviewed, I was very nervous of the unknown. The receptionist told me this is one of those positions that you think can't be true but it is! The income potential here is unheard of. Most importantly, the management team is consistently looking for ways to better the position for both the company as well as the employee.

Cons

As someone else posted, the only Con I would say is the repetitiveness of what the position entails but if you can't think of ways to spice things up, maybe sales in general isn't the career for you!
