Pros

Alot of incentives such as trips and vendors give alot of prizes for your hard work. The manager and supervisors can be very understanding and down to earth. But, they can also turn on you. Your only as good as your last good day. If you fall behind even ONE day they will say something. Be ready to make ALOT of calls. Yu will feel like a glorified telemarketer...ALOT. Many opportuities to make money...from the company AND the vendors.

Cons

Management doesn't know their elbow from their hindquarters alot of the time. Micromanagement is the name of the game here. The commission structure is completley off key. Judge you on how many calls you make or rather customer touches in ordeer to gauge your performance, no matter how much money you closed that day. Give reassigns to those who make the most calls, not who is deemed more value by sales skill.

Pros

Great job out of College. Free stuff all the time like movies tickets, food, happy hour, contests, raffles, etc. Also the location. Long training that looks good on a resume. Also, after a year in sales you have other opportunities to move in latterally in the company. After a year my plan is to move into HR or something business related while I go back to school to get my MBA. They have tuition reinbursement as well. I am young so I thought I would put some time into this company and see what I may get out of it.

Cons

Low Base Pay. People tend to be unprofessional with the way they dress.
