Pros

Great resources, unmatched sales training. The office atmosphere is great and if you're lucky you get to be a part of a fun team.

Cons

The base salary could be a little bit more competitve, but the commission and bonus opportunities kind of balance that out.

Pros

Good company overall...People are intelligent and very helpful to one another. Training is amazing and there are high expectations. Benefits are great. Not a lot of turn over...many veterans.

Cons

Upper management gets placed in position because of sales numbers and not because of leadership skills...Has been an issue within, but not willing to change it. Pay is average for what you do.

Pros

Branch level support is great. if you have a problem your local branch manager will gladly help or listen to you same with core managers. People are always willing to help at the branch level expecially when dealing with frustrations.

Cons

Corporate office doesn't ask the branch before doing they just do. branches that deal with the day to day ahve no say when they really should have alot more say. corporate focuses on the wrong aspect of the business when they should look at the current picture.
