Pros

For those desperate to make money while holding an absence of morality this business offers some chance for adequate compensation if you don't mind "drinking the coolaid". The position also has some hope that in the process of working with other businesses you may find your self worth.

Cons

Unfortunately while the core of the business seems legitimate, and it is in some sense because ultimately business owners need help in exposing their business, the tactics the company ultimately forces you to engage in, in order to make the aggressive expectations they have, are extraordinarily unethical and border on criminal and predatory, You are asked to blatantly deceive people, albeit in a "clever" way. There are a number of instances of credit card fraud that I became aware of whereby the company would trick the business owner into being charged for other services once they had the business owners credit card in file. A particular target for this is tech unaware old ladies. Witnessing the fraud and deception of the company practices firsthand makes a conscientious employee very discouraged with the business world.

Pros

I've been working at AMP for over a year and a half now and haven't looked back. I started remotely, and then moved to Chicago, and now work hybrid in our Schaumburg location! When starting at AMP, I was fresh out of college, and wanting to get a ton of hands on experience. I started with our business development team selling virtual tours, and it taught me to be gritty, get some tough skin, hear my first no's from business owners, and really decide how I want to show up for myself for work each day. This process was hard, undoubtedly, but this is sales, and what matters is the team you have behind you and the ability to buckle in when life gets tough. Between those two traits gained, the rest is icing on the cake. Now I am a Senior Account Manager, with a full book of business, working with owners to help them grow their business. It is beyond fulfilling, and I am so proud of the professional I have grown into be by choosing to work at AMP.

Cons

On the topic of sales, you are never guaranteed success, and what matters is the ability to reflect, look for opportunities to grow, and rely on your teammates. The only con is the inconsistencies of sales, which is nothing any one company can control, but you have to choose not to spiral in your own brain, and ask for help, choose to grow and find solutions for yourself.
