Cons

Hardly any product training Hardly any sales training Useless CRM where 80% of the things in it are lies Weekly pay should be $900 to $1k take home Incompetent managers even in higher ranks. Some don’t even have real sales experience Unrealistic goals for a brand new team that has one vet who left soon after we all started
