Pros

It’s a great company with a lot of potential. They provide opportunities for training and invest in their people. They have average pay with a lot of great benefits.

Cons

No matter how hard you work or how much effort you put in, it doesn’t matter here. It feels like being back in high school it’s a popularity contest. Managers funnel NSS and SOAR referrals to the people they favor. Even if you’re actively working a territory, it won’t make a difference referrals still go to the chosen few. Managers will even manipulate the system to help low performing individuals hit their goals. For context, company rankings show that only about 5% of the entire district consistently hits quota, with just a handful making it to conference. So dream big but not too big. Trust me, you won’t get very far here. And if they try to sell you a dream, remember they’re just looking for another churn and burn employee.

Pros

People and the overall environment is a positive one. If you do your part, definite long term career potential. It’s not easy- but stable, growing. Worth serious consideration for early career looking for sales experience with a great training program. Also good for mid-career consideration if base salary isn’t the primary reason you are in sales.

Cons

Very fast pace that doesn’t suit everyone. If you are looking for easy or just a job to “hang out”, this probably isn’t the right spot for you.

Pros

Remote work is a plus. Collaboration from peers is more plus than minus. Documentation of business technology was great for the most part.

Cons

Worse holiday observance company I ever worked for. Pay is low for what is asked. Work/life balance was good until 2025. Mid-level leadership and above is not ideal. I had little guidance when I started so, especially from manager so had to figure things out with help of peers.
