I enjoyed my time with this company. It was short-lived but a great opportunity for recent college graduates.

Pros

Great starting salary for recent college graduates. Teaches you how to get acclimated to the working world and budget your finances properly. Hours are not bad at all (8-5) and the workplace is ideal with solid people. Upper management is good and approachable which you don't always find in entry-level jobs.

Cons

The training teaches a very specific formula to make sales. Some people could be successful using their own methods of selling but that is not allowed here. Very repetitive and often a high volume of calls early on. Little flexibility with clients and you are often watched and tracked closely early on.

Good Entry Level Job

Ad sales director

Pros

The company does a good job of bringing in, and taking a risk on out of college kids for their first job. Some sink, some swim. The markets you work with are fun, and the pay is reasonable. The process of sales is solid.

Cons

The office managers are so stuck on the "plan" they don't allow for different approaches that might work for their sales people. While the framework is solid, there is some wiggle room for your personality they don't let you use.

The Worst Job I Ever Held

Inside sales representative
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Commiserating with other co-workers. Making fun of the corpulent managers. Close to the A/C train?

Cons

Looking for a place filled with orange hued guidos who love lying to people over the phone (they often even use fake names when calling companies)? This is your spot! None, and I mean none, of the senior sales people at this place would make it at a real publisher like Conde, Hearst, Time Inc, etc. Why? Because PSP is more like Boiler Room than Mad Men. I used to get sick to my stomach on Sunday nights thinking about having to go back in there the next morning to be belittled by guys whose only real talent is delivering falsehoods over the phone. This is not a place for anybody who has any integrity at all.
