Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent market research, data, and resources

Cons

Lack of consistency among management. Horrible compensation. Extremely corporate. Managers are the least experienced I've encountered. Focus is completely on "inputs" rather than output. Short-term strategy and vision. No long-term outlook nor willingness to create strategic business alliances for long-run gain.

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay is ok. A few smart, nice people to work with. Safe place if you're ok with playing in the minor leagues.

Cons

Never-ending politics. Self-promoting, watch-out for yourself mentality. Highly unstable environment with never-ending priority shifts. Dictatorial, micromanaging leadership that goes all the way to the top. Barbaric vacation/time-off policies. Bargain basement benefits. Extra bonus points if you're willing to do email on weekends and evenings. Old boys network. No opportunities for women. Grumpy faces all around.

High turnover due to lack of leadership and development

Business Outlook

Pros

Good job for someone willing to put in long hours and hard work for little pay and recognition. 100% commission is never the way to go.

Cons

Unless you've been in the industry for 10+ years don't count on anyone paying you any attention or even acting like they're interested in your success. It's a revolving door.
