Pros

If you're a sales-oriented person and trying to make your way up to a better sales position, this is not a terrible place to start. You are given adequate on-the-job training. It is a very laid back environment. The employee handbook says business casual is required, but people wear jeans/shorts and tshirts every day. Managers in my office are very down-to-earth and will back you up when you need help, joining you on potential client meetings to help you get out of any holes you dig yourself into.

Cons

Low pay, extremely high employee turnover (if you don't hit your sales goals ON THE DOT or over, you will lose your job). Cold call expectations are slightly unrealistic. Since it is such a laid back culture, it is more often than not a very unprofessional environment. The sales floor often gets way too loud from music played over speakers and people yelling across the room, so you cannot hear people over the phone. There are two options: stay in the same sales position for your entire tenure there and follow the salary program they have laid out for that position, or become a manager and go to whatever office they tell you to.

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.
