Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

Incompetent managers who only know how to micromanage their employees and who have zero experience in the area they are managing. A total game of favoritism here where the people who work hard don't get any recognition. HR's involvement to increase retention and job satisfaction is nonexistent.

Great product, in-person office atmosphere is very good, great learning opportunity for someone newly stepping into first sales role from previous SDR position

Cons

Ran through sales account patches, below average base pay for role vs. rest of industry, can be a bit of a pressure cooker at times, high turnover
