Pros
This is my third job since graduating college. I worked for a small company as a sales manager and a global provider of payroll solutions. Brooksource is a great because it combines the small, tight knit culture that is impossible to find in a large company, with the success and enterprise-level clients and the earnings potential that comes with providing those accounts with solutions. I've been through 4 different corporate training environments, 2 of them being with brooksource. You receive tailored training with one on one role plays, group practice and awesome knowledge transfer from some of our best reps, directors and upper management, prior to your first day in the field. One of the best things in my opinion is the accessibility of every single person in our organization. You are able to reach out to and learn from a variety of resources within our company such as top recruiters and account executives, vertical and national account managers, directors, c level executives and the founder of the company. They're more than willing to make sure you have everything you need to succeed. I get to call on, work with and build out teams for Fortune 500 companies at the age of 25. I get an expense account to entertain clients and further the relationships. The best part about working in staffing is that you are not selling a physical product one time, then dealing with all of the maintenance that comes with that product. If you're successful you will have repeat business and you'll have a great time reselling those managers and accounts. When you win, you win big.
Cons
Brooksource is not for the lazy, you have to put in a lot of work. You have to stay later than your colleagues and competitors but it pays off in the end. There are several uncontrollables in staffing. You're working with people instead of a product. Over time you learn how to prevent some of these from happening. Every sales job has its ups and downs.
