Pros

For the temporary assignment, I was able to work 1st shift, 8-4:30 daily which was nice. Nice cafeteria. Somewhat clean bathrooms

Cons

I worked in a typical call center environment. Every phone call was monitored and bathroom breaks were timed. There was very little chance of getting time off when needed and not much opportunity for advancement. I didn't even get my own desk to work at. I worked in a temporary position with several others. One day after lunch in the middle of the week, they told us all that our assignment was over without any warning.

Pros

Amazing training and great team to work with, good beneftis and fun presidents clubs.

Cons

Micromanagement, too many reps in a small territories, sometimes it seemed you were competing more with your fellow co-workers than your competition. Bad implementation of sales force, it would take an hour a day to update to managements specs, also unfortunately the amazing people I worked with are no longer there.
