Pros

Their sales training program was robust and thorough.

Cons

The sales team on the floor were actively yelled at by the management, there was a boiler room culture, and sales reps were training us on how to cut corners, manipulate contract terms, and/or reframe the services/value in ways that weren't transparent.
