Pros

Overall a very good company. Must work very hard though to make good money. Work on yourself, be dedicated. You need to grow your own book of business which does involve working evenings and a few hours on weekends if you want to progress unless you are super gifted.

Cons

Boy. There are many. But probably there are with most companies. Ok, there is dubious value for client. Cant tell you how many marketing campaigns that are under-performing which bring in cancellations. The product line is built to scale for the national corporation. Limited options for clients, little customization available to really help the client. You have to be good and sales to keep the client from canceling. Since there is no barriers to entry as a digital marketer, the competition is fierce, and there is not a lot of ways to separate Hibu's offerings from the competition. Hibu's profits are big to support everyone's salaries so less dollars to help the client be successful, but more dollars in your pocket - its a trade off if you feel comfortable with or not. Be prepared to grind and work hard. Cold calls, visits etc... Expectations of activity are beyond what is even possible. New reps hired is like a revolving door, so many new faces come and go. Territories are reducing with less prospect opportunities, while the company wants to grow and packing in more reps in smaller territories..

Pros

The money flexibility and income potential are endless it's all what you put in and the people that say it is a scam or is untrue just probably we're not very good at their job.

Cons

Sometimes the stress of managing the accounts and dealing with different personalities but once you see the checks it all goes away.

Pros

It is a longstanding/ recognizable brand. Their is endless infrastructure and support across the company and new things are always being developed. My manager always did his best to help me succeed. Pretty good benefits package as far as I know.

Cons

Only a tiny percent of all sales reps hit quota each year, so don't be fooled by the big numbers. (I qualified for presidents club my first year and was always under quota each month.) Like most big corporate companies you often feel like just a number. The clients that I signed on often feel the same way as well. The job gets more and more stressful as you have to manage the marketing accounts of all of your clients while still trying to maintain consistent sales.
