Pros

Great base salary & on-target earnings for recent college grads/ a salesperson with 0-3 years relevant experience. They also offer a negotiable relocation package.

Cons

Many times young talent is the most economical talent to hire. However, hiring so many recent college grads has created an office culture that tends to feel like a frat house. Recruiters sell you on a 2 year promotion track that is not likely to materialize unless you find a way to be a golden child in the eyes of VPs. Additionally they recruit people to pick up their lives and move to Fort Myers for the role, but then fire some before they are ever out of the training academy.

Pros

Being a globally recognized company makes it easy to consistently engage clients. Great benefits. Amazing people (managers and colleagues) For the most part there is a clear path to success and promotions. Executives listen to feedback after every internal call to help guide strategy.

Cons

In office mandate increasing in office days from once a month to once a week. Need to live in Florida or Texas because of the in office mandate. Promotions take a while since there are many people going for the same roles. Hard to reach clients and constant territory’s shifting makes it difficult to achieve the numbers you and management expect.
