Pros

They have good benefits and pay decent.

Cons

They have unreasonable expectations of their employees. Everyone must literally be perfect. They are constantly firing people

Pros

This role is incredibly motivating and rewarding. There is something so special about being able to work for a company that truly values its employees and provides resources to promote success. While the culture is an incredible aspect of this job, being able to sell the premium product in the industry and truly help clients is a bonus.

Cons

Not necessarily a downside, but this job requires a large time commitment.

Pros

-Product is good -Opportunity to sell into every industry -Good benefits -They give you a lot of resources to sell with and learn from -Overall you will learn a lot in this role -Really enjoyed working with my clients -The job pushes you to get better -Every day feels important -Pay structure is incredible and the reps who last long make a killing and end up benefiting from high turnover -Coworkers in my office were great to work with

Cons

-Feels like you're never actually clocked out -High turnover (My office had over 80% turnover in the 4 months I worked there) between people quitting and getting fired -Very high stress -Short overall rep tenure. Only had 1 rep in my office with more than 1 year of experience. Makes it harder to get good deal advice when you're new -Constant strategy changes from leadership -Unrealistic quota: 1 of 8 reps at my office hit quota -Product positioning in market a bit out of touch. Premium price with little separation from competition. Makes it a very difficult sale which is why the pay structure is good -No flexibility -Old school culture pushes sales and customer support reps away -long long long hours of work needed to do job well. Everyone on my team was putting in 60-70 hours weeks despite not hitting quota -Do not practice the principles they sell their product on. Utilize improved retention and culture as a reason to buy but neither are good within the company amongst other things
