Pros

Great coworkers. Nice perks. You feel like you are "making a difference".

Cons

No training. "Bro" mentality. Is obviously a "stepping stone" towards other jobs; employee's are constantly quiting/being let go. Lots of egomaniac's. An unorganized "startup" mentality. Employees are "brainwashed". Executives are too involved. A toxic work environment.

Pros

Great training. They fly you out to vegas to go over and role play common objections. Quality of the finished product is great.

Cons

A lot of back door dealing and playing favorites when it comes to obtaining leads. Some guys on the team get handed the best quality of everything, and some poor guys get garbage opportunities for no reason.

Pros

Good benefits. That's all. need more words? they're in the "con" section.

Cons

Some reviews say you've got 90 days probation. Forget it! You are expected to go full steam at 1 week. I lasted 21 days without any training. This company is seriously disorganized, and they do not have the competence to grow at the pace they're attempting. Furious hiring pace, Just as fast throwing people under the bus, incompetent "training", non-functional equipment, Okay, I've said it. There is no 90-day probation.
