Pros

You can make somewhat decent money if your selling the right product. Benefits are BCBS so that's good. The cafeteria is nice and good discounts. Easy to get the job if your desperate that why there are so many recent graduates who work here

Cons

They are really inflexible with all employees. They ask for OT but never give PTO when needed. The management are a bunch of kids that just managed to kiss the right butts. It's a High School hierarchy. They basically don't care at all about the sales force. Chew em up and spit them out. The compensation scale has gone down drastically in last 12 months while the qualifiers have gone up. They only get high employee ratings because the make your take the survey online from your desk and everyone knows they have the ability to figure out who's bad mouthing them Fear of losing your job is the only motivation the sales force has. I've seen 9 out of the original members of my team leave most by firing in the yr. I've been here. Cant wait till I can tell them to shove it.

Pros

Strong ownership, opportunity to manage people early, great people, nice campus. You will work on interesting problems and external companies. Great training if the space interests you.

Cons

Business future is uncertain, up or out management principles. New senior leaders somewhat disconnected from the day-to-day. Commute from Charlotte is horrible.
