Pros

There really isn't much to say- good benefits package, free coffee/slushies/popcorn/hot cocoa, and these cool desks that raise up and down to accommodate you if you want to stand or sit.

Cons

Where to begin? Crazy, long hours, especially when you calculate in commute time. Saturday's are expected, and it's looked down upon if you actually take your lunch. You get lectured if you take 5 minutes off the phone to speak to someone or take a breather. Most of management is on a power trip, they talk down to you and your expected to just put up with whatever they say to you. Pay is horrific, I earned more at my minimum wage job in high school considering the hours I work. I have a 4-year degree, most of the people I work with maybe have high school degrees. Not the place to be if your actually intelligent and want to use your brain at your job.

Pros

Licenses are paid for by the company The early trainings are effective Strong values that help set employees on the right path of actions professionally

Cons

"Limitless compensation" is oversold when there may not be ample opportunities to make a 6 figure income that they might promise. Work/Life Balance is a struggle as it is normal to assume 60+ hour weeks outside of internal sales competitions, and 70+ hour expectations during those periods The work culture can greatly vary based on your director and regional VP. Some are amazing, and care deeply. Others will throw you under the bus without second thought because you are easily replaceable.
