Pros

Money is great while the sales are coming in and some of the benefits are “ok” at best.

Cons

This Job has no time for you to have a life outside of work. While management treat you like animals and expects you to dedicate everything to make you successful and while degrading and sometimes making you feel sucidial due to the pressures that are put on you. I get it sales has its highs and lows but this company doesnt try to understand that. They feel micromanaging you helps you do better but in the end the micromanaging turns into public humiliation and it makes you feel like you can never do your job right. The Hr department does nothing to assist the employees noir does it even attempt to try and fix these problems. They never make you feel like your apart of the team but instead you are an expendable assest and you have no value to the company. Despite what forbes said about the company I am curious if this is truly a happy work environment why is the turnover so high??? This company will drain you till you have no juice left to keep going. Also the company never takes responsibility for its actions with the horrible customer service that it can provide.

Pros

- Very very easy to move up in the company. If you dedicate a couple years and show skill in sales you can move up to a sales manager position extremely fast. If you are willing to move the opportunity to move up is even significantly easier and faster. - Almost all of management started at the bottom and worked their way up, if possible they always hire from within. - Good money, get out what you put in. - Direct Management is great, local and even regional management is almost even fantastic, but any higher then that becomes out of touch and very frustrating to (albeit indirectly) work with.

Cons

- Inconsistent at times about expectations, at times asking for one thing then immediately needing the other. Can be frustrated to be pulled in so many directions, but not even remotely unmanageable. - Lot's of hours, especially in management. Prime time? (March-End of May) Say goodbye to your personal life! Mandatory 1/2 day Saturdays, definitely a grind but worth it. - Frustrating policies and illogical outlook on what success looks like.
