- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
This is a role where you can have significant earning potential. It is a grind as most sales jobs are, but I was able to pay off my student loans and my car loans in my first year and a half. Additionally, the company has started to really show how much they appreciate their employees with great flexibility, awards/incentives, and fun activities/programs to be a part of. It’s a great position whether you are a college grad or an experienced sales person/recruiter.
Cons
The culture is a bit young, which at times can be a good or bad thing. Also, it does take a bit of time to get up and running, but once you master your craft, the opportunities are endless.

Pros
Transparent environment, fantastic growth opportunity, ability to control compensation, way too much vacation to be frank, 3pm leave on Fridays is wild, and the learning and career growth is quite strong.

No cons to share. Always ways to improve as a business but this is undeniably a place that wants to improve and always get better. The culture has evolved just as the people have during the 5+ years I have been here and it is fantastic to see.

Pros
I’ve been lucky enough to work in a very interesting market that I’ve become very passionate about. I’ve great guidance from my manager and they’ve helped make me successful even though it didn’t “click” straight away. Yes it’s hard work but they told me that in the interview and it was what I expected. They’ve managed to continue growing throughout the pandemic and that is pretty amazing considering the wider world and where a lot of businesses are at right now.
Cons
It’s aggressive growth model but it’s fun to see the company grow so quickly and be a part of that. I’ve had the chance to earn more money and progress faster than I ever thought possible
