      Pros

      All staff is allowed a lot of freedom

      Cons

      low management accountability of staff indiscretions, lack of compensation increases for loyal, long time employees, no potential for advancement for account executives in the Atlanta market-regardless of qualifications (entire management staff has been in place less time than 80% of the sales staff)

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Meeting celebrities, the opportunity to network and the relaxed environment

      Cons

      Little to no room for growth, no raises, not family friendly, they treat you like a number instead of a valued employee even when you give outstanding service, they expect you to choose your job over any other aspect of your life. They have no understanding when it comes to your own family. They also hardly ever give raises and when you do receive one, it's literally pennies every 3 to 4 years. It's nearly impossible to keep up with the rise in the economy with this company.
