Pros

- Managing your own territory - Great team - Lots of internal resources - extensive training - Base plus commission opportunities - Benefits

Cons

- Micro Management - Playing office politics - Base Salary should be more for the work we put in, commission is not guaranteed so if you’re not exceeding 95% then you won’t make a penny past your base. - Constant redundant meetings weekly - Metrics (you should expect weekly conversations revolving how you’re doing)

Pros

Great Benefits! Great Work Life Balance! I have a great boss!

Cons

Pay not competitive for my line of work. I'm a seasoned account manager with years of Sales experience, always meeting my metrics and exceeding sales goals. Commission structure has not change in the 6 years I've been in this role. Salary is no longer competitive. Moving into a new role or getting promoted is difficult because it's basically who you know and who wants you on their team.
