Pros

Great place to begin a Sales career right out of college. Proper training in the form of formal sales training in Parsippany, NJ. Learning the basics of sales is great, and not every company will take the time to train you this well. Basic tools such as a car allowance, cell phone allowance, and small budget marketing expenses are all reimbursed. Once you've been in sales a few years these are obvoius things; but coming straight out of college this was a great stepping stone. Other companies will recognize ADP training on your resume.

Cons

Not a great place to stay for your Sales career. Better money to be made elsewhere, and more interesting products and services elsewhere.

Pros

Resume Gold! Having the name on your resume opens doors because people know you can survive a high-volume, high-complexity environment. That’s where the benefits end.

Cons

Pay: It’s a joke. They expect specialized, expert-level work and deep tax knowledge for a base salary that is way below the market. They use the big name as an excuse to underpay you. Work/Life Balance: You are never truly off. To hit the impossible quotas, people are forced to work off the clock just to keep up. Management knows this is the only way the work gets done, but they look the other way so they don't have to address the workload. Management: They are manipulative and not leaders. Instead of helping with the workload, they use moving goalposts and vague promises of growth to keep you running. There is no advocacy for employees. Make sure to get everything in writing. Some get amnesia. Quantity over Quality: It’s a sweatshop for data. You’re forced to rush through complex setups just to hit a Go-Live count to appease Sales. Accuracy is key, but it often takes a backseat to volume, which is a nightmare for anyone who cares about doing the job right. No Room to Grow: There is no real way to move up. ADP is a lateral move company, and that’s only if your management doesn’t stand in your way and prevent you from leaving for another internal team.
