Pros

I have worked at the Charlotte, NC office at PSP for nearly a year and have nothing but a positive experience. In the first week, management provides you with in depth training and the necessary tools to be very successful. The atmosphere is great, as you get to be in the middle of the action around all of your peers and not trapped in a cubicle all day. Being around your co-workers not only allows you to learn from others, but also creates a positive sense of competitiveness and drive that helps everybody be successful. Management is nothing but support and is always willing to help and provide feedback to everybody in order to make you as good at the job as you can be. The branch manager in Charlotte, Jack Thompson, is one of the nicest people you will meet, and is always taking time out of his day to interact with everybody and be as hands on as possible with his employees. The base salary is great, and with the opportunity for commission and bonuses, the job gives you the financial security that you need to enjoy life outside of the office. The company also does happy hour events and other team building events outside of the office, which helps you mesh with your coworkers and give you a chance to socialize with everybody outside of the office setting. If you are willing to work hard and be a positive member of the office, you will reap the many benefits that PSP has to offer!

Cons

Like any other job in sales, you have to get used to some rejection. You're not going to sell every single person, but that's just a fact of the sales world.

Pros

Working with PSP is unique because you have firsthand access to Major league sports material. It's cool to say I work in sports publishing. I like my coworkers and those in office with me. We have good camaraderie and keep the office culture lively.

Cons

I do not feel valued by this company. This winter we had three heavy snowstorms and when I asked if I the company would be closing for safety, my boss looked at me and laughed saying "the company doesn't care about that." Turns out many of my coworkers have had to drive through blizzards and awful conditions in order to come in multiple times. Recently the company decided to give us "summer Friday's", except in order to receive the benefit of leaving at 2pm on Friday, we had to come in a half hour earlier everyday all summer to "make sure we're not losing manpower". This doesn't make me feel like you value my time or want to make sure I have a healthy work/life balance. I'm expected to bend over backward and still preform at max capacity. I feel like the company would take an chance to screw over it's employees to cut costs and I don't appreciate working under that type of management style.
