Pros

They have a Startup vibe still even though the company has grown a lot, which is cool. Doesn’t feel too corporate. Cool headquarters. Nice friendly people.

Cons

my managers micromanaged me, they demand 150 calls a day and would message me “what’s up, man? Saw you didn’t make call count yesterday. That’s not acceptable.,” if I ever fell even 10-20 calls short, and they harp on activity over productivity. When asked why, they say “it’s how we’ve grown to where we are now.” Very simplistic answer. Basically slam the phones is their one size fits all solution. They pay bdrs below average, but their company motto is “don’t be average.” Very sports-fan bro culture. People were nice and cool overall, but the Company and culture wasn’t for me.

Pros

Not many positives. There is a demand for their product so there isn’t a lack of sales opp.

Cons

They hire a lot of people outside of their state of Nebraska where their headquarters reside. They don’t adjust for the cost of living in your state however. Low payout on commission unless you outwork +150 other Reps

Pros

People are great Always there to help

Cons

Salary is garbage and to make commission you make 120+ cold calls with a good possibility that you won’t even get it. The company makes a gross 134 million a year with 500 employees and can’t even pay their employees a decent base salary.
