Pros

-If you like sales and sports, it can be a good mix for you -New Office -Can work from home

Cons

Sales company or Athletic Recruiting Company? Scout or Sales Rep? Value consistent top performers or people that consistently "try" but don't get the job done? Its a Sales company...yet they value weak performers who do it the NCSA way over those who hit their sales goals doing it a different more effective way. Tend to measure success in ways that don't allow you to make money which is backwards in a sales organization. Certain Managers/VP's aren't qualified to be in their positions, lack leadership/work ethic and Exec's don't see this for some reason, yet they keep them around to negatively impact an entire sales team consistently. No room for growth even when you are fully seeking and have earned it.

Pros

The people are the secret sauce of NCSA - it's a great team that wants win, innovate, and grow together. Lots of opportunities to provide feedback and connect with leadership.

Cons

The work can be challenging and very demanding.

Pros

- Work from home - Get to talk about sports every day, and getting to learn about new sports - Manager was awesome, but I may have been lucky - I heard bad things about other managers! - There are about 10 teams of Recruiting Coordinators, all performing the same role, and each team being managed differently. Not sure if this is a pro or con

Cons

- Making around 100 calls/day - Leads are technically not cold, but they might as well be - lots of families didn't realize what they were signing up for - Over half of the leads in my funnel every day were recycled, i.e. we have called them in the past and they were not interested. Sometimes leads were recycled upwards of 10 times - Making phone calls from 9:00 am - 6:00 pm local time - often calling families at 7 -8 pm their time - Will likely be flagged if you go more than 20 minutes without making a call unless communicating with your manager
