Pros

Nice office, friendly co-workers, people work very hard

Cons

pay is very low for the expectations of you. Systems are horribly slow. Way too much work for the pay. You could work 23 hrs per day and not get done what they expect and get paid on the low end of an AE in KC across the stations. Have non compete so cant go anywhere else to earn a living. Modern advancements in field come slow. All competitors have the newer products before we do.

Pros

Sales team is super bonded over terrible senior management.

Cons

Executive leadership team is not equipped to manage high performing sales people. They mange first year sales reps the same as they manage 20+ years of experience sales reps. 5 members of the sales team have voluntarily walked off the team in the last 2 months and no changes have been made to leadership. Leadership said they were changing our comp plan mid year, but wouldn’t telling us what it was changing to (essentially asking us to sell like normal without telling us what we’d be paid).
