Pros

-No cap on vacation or sick days (although you will be made to feel guilty when you take it) -Can make good money if you are lucky enough to be placed in a decent market (although all markets are going downhill)

Cons

-Immense pressure to hit unrealistic sales goals -Management out of touch with what's going on during phone calls (it's getting harder and harder to close deals as more and more people don't want to work with Groupon) -Used to be a fun culture. Now it's all about the bottom line and feels like your typical call center -Sales staff are worked to the bone
