Pros
The Founders of business talent group are very intelligent women and it's cool that you get the opportunity to pick their brain.
Cons
Pay Structure:Bonus -This is not traditional sales in that your bonuses are taxed as a bonus not commission. In addition, there are many areas of the sales cycle that are out of your control and you are not compensated on what YOU bring to the table. Failing model -You learn real quickly that most executives are heavily biased towards independent consulting and if they choose to use independents they can normally hire from their own personal networks. I don't see BTG's model to be very scalable and the 60% growth they advertise is partially due to the fact they fire many of their employees. Terrible Management -BTG only believes in hiring from within. Unfortunately this means you'll have a 23 year old manager managing your career. I don't know about you, but I would feel uneasy with someone who's fresh out of MBA managing my career let alone a 23 year old out of undergrad. No mentorship plan -This is probably because BTG does not even have solid plan for itself. They call themselves a "consulting resource" but really they are a glorified staffing firm that cold calls executives and tries to convince them to use "their" independent consultants. They won't encourage you to learn more because then you'll leave before they get the chance to fire you.
