Pros

If you are able to work without morals, ethics, etc, then this job is for you. Lying, stealing, cheating, are all required to succeed. Women with multiple degrees make thousands less than men who graduated high school.

Cons

Culture is horrendous, the entire corporation doesn't care about any of it's employees. It's actually cult-like.

Toxic, micromanaged, no work-life balance.

Pros

I had a lot of support and training my first two months, made some friends through trauma bonding over how horrible this company is, and the office has free snacks!

Cons

I first want to say I think it matters what team/region you are in. I've heard good things from people coming out of other regions but this review is specifically for the Dallas, Austin, and Oklahoma City region. You will start to lose sense of work life balance and feel guilty for not working 50+ hours a week because you're expected to work after hours everyday. The reason why you're expected to work after hours is because you are in internal meetings ranging from 2-4 hours every day so there's not enough time to do the unattainable amount of work you're expected to do. You're also expected to go to networking events outside of work hours so you can get business that way. You'll hit last weeks metrics and it's still not enough so they will raise it. Senior managers will say they aren't micromanaging you and check office badge swipes to see if and when you're in the office (when it's not expected for them to go into the office). If you speak up against your managers you will get fired or be given a hard time until you decide to resign (I've seen this happen to several employees who did a good job given the tough market). If you don't show up to optional meetings outside of work hours, you get a call from senior management.
