Pros

Really liked my coworkers, nice office. Not a whole lot of micro-management if you are on track to hit your sales goals.

Cons

If you want to succeed here and have a work/life balance, this is not the place for you. CEO is ruthless and greedy. Everyone here fears for their jobs month after month, which does not make for a happy work environment.

Pros

It is a laid back environment, you are able to enjoy drinks with your clients and if you are in sales the compensation potential is incredible.

Cons

The management team is a joke. In some offices the management team is a group of mean girls who have had a hard time leaving sorority life in college. You are not compensated based on performance but on how well you "manage up." This company is unique in that hard work means nothing, but being the squeaky wheel and flattering management will allow you to not have to perform any work but get accolades.
