Pros

- My coworkers..great, kind, smart, and supportive group of people. - the young culture - good location in Boston (next to Back Bay and Copley Square)

Cons

- Obviously salary.. it could have gotten better with the Overtime Law because they said they would increase our base salary, but then they took that away when the law was put on hold. In addition, they literally announced it to us the day it was going into affect..some people even heard it 1 day after. - Upper management are clueless in managing and the actual work that we do. - I used to love this job because I saw a career and valuable skills in it, but ever since the MULTIPLE reorgs/ department changes in the past year, I've grown to hate my job. Majority of my workers feel the same way and we are all planning to leave soon.

Pros

Free snacks and beer are a nice touch. Great location if you work in the city. Great colleagues to take your mind off the job.

Cons

Management completely ignores the employees well being. They only care about money and will cut you out if you fit in perfectly. The pay is horrendous and you can't live off of it. They blind you with a trendy office space, free snacks and beer, and parties. Policies change constantly. And so will your pay/commission. You'll be expected to over achieve with little support. You'll also be completely micromanaged and often ask "what have you been doing?" When working hard and having a slow week in sales. They favor those who do well but don't help those who need help succeed. I would take back the year I worked there in a second if it weren't for the friends I met. We never saw sales numbers but often saw news reports of the CEO and management selling their shares of the company.
