Pros

Extremely talented reps Phenomenal products, niche products no other company has Have the potential to be an amazing company

Cons

Complete boys club. Women who are far more talented and have better performance don’t get opportunities male counterparts do. Promote terrible managers rather than get rid of them Extremely low pay comparative to other companies Constant turnover in management Management has never “carried the bag” so don’t understand what reps actually do on a day to day

Pros

It has good benefits and decent pay.

Cons

You will be expected to do the work of 4 people and make up for the people that fail to do their own jobs because of the way goals are set. Company culture is an ongoing issue regardless of what you're told and they've done nothing that I have seen in several years to try to fix it across the different CEOs. Turn over has not improved in my time here (less than 50% of the people who start will still be here in 5 years is what I was told by a manager shortly after I initially started). There' s a reason.
