Pros

You have the opportunity to make a lot of money (don't worry, you'll be reminded of that everyday, 10x a day). Training is extensive, but very well done and informative. You can meet some really great people, and the opportunity to be promoted quickly is at your disposal. The health benefits are great and extremely cheap. In terms of income, you will crush it, IF you survive.

Cons

Be prepared to be treated like nothing more than a body who generates revenue. Even when you are doing exceptionally well, you will fear for your job security every single day. Managers will stroke your ego one day, and the next you're on the chopping block for something insignificant. There is absolutely no flexibility. Ever. Work-life balance will be thrust down your throat as a mission of the company, but they won't do anything about it. The PTO policy is next to nothing, but don't worry, you'll be too afraid to use it. Be willing to receive texts from your office group chat from 6 a.m. until 11 p.m. I saw amazing, hard-working, intelligent people cry daily. This job took my soul out of me and by the time I left, I didn't even recognize myself. Just know what you're getting yourself into. If making a ton of money at the cost of your sanity and soul is worth it to you, by all means go for it - you have the opportunity. Just do your homework first, the negative reviews are here for a reason.

Pros

- Base salary - PTO - Awesome colleagues - $1 Medical PPO offering

Cons

- Upper leadership seem to not value the operations department as much as they do with sales. They are not consistent as well, which causes them to change the entire department's job description, expectations, & commission structure every few months. Change is good but huge change every 3-4 months is so exhausting. - They overload you with too many clients to handle while increasing the number of internal calls. When asking for support from sales or middle management, its typically a hard negotiation or non-existent. Expect to work way over 40 hours/week and juggle 10-20+ clients at a time. - Sales will oversell on product & implementation expectation which makes the job 1000% harder. Turnover with sales is extremely high so don't expect for even the best reps stay as they either leave, get fired because quota was not met, or the new manager will cut them if they're "not the vibe". You get left with the newbies who does not know how to sell or support you when you need them. - Every role in this company has high turnover in general. Making it very hard to cross collaborate with other departments as everyone is either extremely swamped or new to the role and cannot support as well, - Being forced to go to Oklahoma for training every year, sometimes twice a year.
