Pros

Great work/ life balance. Great community of co-workers. Great sales experience as an entry-level position. Great benefits!

Cons

This position for every other city except for Manhattan is a perfect career position. Upper management has not realized/ does not care enough that sales techniques and sales goals that they apply to this position do NOT apply to the Manhattan lifestyle or the Manhattan way that sales work. Also- no movement up, just "move over" opportunities.
