Pros

Great product. No Dress Code. Ability to express opinions and thoughts without retribution. Many good, smart, and creative people. A potentially great future if the right path is taken.

Cons

Unattainable sales targets. If targets are not hit there is very little or no commission, even if you generate huge amounts of revenue. Management constantly changing priorities -and when they do, everything you worked for is instantly irrelevant. High turnover. Extremely heavy workload. Monitoring of too much activity.
