Pros

Amazing training - they invest so much into their sales people to ensure everyone crushes it. Fun work culture as everyone is there to get better, make a lot of money and win.

Cons

Must be motivated. If you're looking for something chill where you can coast, this isn't it. It's a grind but very fulfilling as you truly do get better every single day.
