Pros

There are no pros working for this company. I would advise you to STAY away from this company. Do not be fooled by the schedules and the free lunch, etc. These people treat their employees like slaves.

Cons

Everything is a con with this establishment. They treat their employees horribly with the quota numbers that they expect them to meet. The pressure and total disregard for everyone's well-being is appalling. The managers and leads are all rude and they have favorites. Work somewhere else, you will be horrified if you work for this company.

Pros

Good peer group of women on the team. Mileage reimbursement is provided.

Cons

Extremely high sales quotas that are difficult to consistently achieve, paired with limited compensation upside even when goals are met. The organization feels top-heavy, with too many layers of management relative to the field team, which creates inefficiencies and slows decision-making. Management style can feel overly micromanaged and at times more focused on process and tone than actual business growth or performance metrics. There is limited perceived career growth, and compensation does not scale meaningfully with experience or performance. Overall morale among the sales team is low, and employee concerns around workload, pay, and structure do not always feel addressed in a meaningful way.
