Pros

No longer any to report

Cons

Progression not based on performance but based on who you know. No Longer a family environment and treated more like a sweat shop.

Pros

Great product, in-person office atmosphere is very good, great learning opportunity for someone newly stepping into first sales role from previous SDR position

Cons

Ran through sales account patches, below average base pay for role vs. rest of industry, can be a bit of a pressure cooker at times, high turnover
