Pros

Best group of individuals I have worked with.

Cons

The quality of the leads are the worst. You are given 5 to 6 leads ever morning to run but they are the worst quality leads possible. On one is expecting you and are are expected to close a sales on one sit

Pros

Straight commission sales position designed only for driven, high-pressure salespeople. If you are not Alec Baldwin in Glengarry-Glenross, then don't waste your time for the week of training in the Crowne Plaza hotel in North-West Chicago. (Either for SMS or Global Resources.)

Cons

Unless you love running leads set by minimum-wage, South Chicago telemarketers (BC's or Business Coordinators as they call it) and can drink the Burgess Kool-Aid... (search John Burgess and /or Tyler Burgess, IPA, GPS, etc. and judge for yourself.) Marc Eisner leads the week long class you would attend, and even he admits that this is not an opportunity for most... especially if you have a soul.
