Pros

Great training: Professional Selling Skills Salaries are competitive, bonus uncapped Light work load during the summer

Cons

Extremely heavy work load during the selling season Very high turnover rate. In one sales meeting product session, over 50% of the reps in the room were brand new Very clique-ish, felt a bit like 7th grade Management can be downright catty

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
