Pros

Pls is a perfect entry level sales position. For a tenured exec (2-3 years) the AE position gives employees a fantastic opportunity to polish skills and go elsewhere. At the same time, you can certainly continue your growth at PLS and continue to do well for yourself.

Cons

The cons, at least from the sales floor, is correlated to the atmosphere and demographic of what pls hires. Many times there are reps more than capable to be successful but lack certain sales professional skills given it is an early entry level position. Past corporate experience, understanding the portfolio PLS offers to customers & technical skills are all pieces to the puzzle that many reps understand and as soon as you get behind, it becomes an unshakeable defeat.

Pros

The Colleagues and relationships you make with your co-workers. Building a book of business, and fast paced environment. Unlimited Growth Potential.

Cons

The direction the company is headed in and the toxicity of an everchanging management structure. As someone who spent almost a decade with PLS; I can say fully and honestly, they do not care about you. This is a company to build experience with and move on from. If you are a $20K rep for more than 6 months, after you roll out, they will move off of you. You will be terminated with no second thought--other reps will poach your clients and potentially ruin any relationships. Furthermore, management tends to play favorites--If you show growth potential, they will feed you, but the moment you fail on one opportunity--you will be turned over. This is not the job for anyone who questions their own ability and work ethic. PLS Hires in classes - they will hire 30-40 people at a time, and in 3 months, 4 to 5 people of that class will remain. The turn over is extremely high and there is no job security. Finally, even if you are a top performer, they will not hesitate to get rid of you.
