Pros

This job isn't for everyone but it's the fairest job and fairest company that I've ever worked for. I get to work hard every day and manage a team of people that I genuinely care about; the relationships that you build with the team/office/region is really unparalleled and lets me enjoy going to work every day. I personally get bored with jobs as soon as I figure out my system but every day is different and although there are ups and downs I get a ton of satisfaction out of what I do. Once again, this job isn't for everyone and there is turnover like any other sales/recruiting job, but the company isn't so solely metrics-driven that they just cut the bottom 10% like other agencies do. Even if one of my trainees doesn't end up working out, we take a lot of pride in still giving them skills that they can take and apply to whatever they choose to be great at. There is training and mentorship and accountability at a level that I haven't seen anywhere else.

Cons

You're not going to make a ton from the jump and probably won't make the expected "sales" money until a year or so in. It's about delayed gratification and skill building and trust the process. You're not going to have the best work-life balance until you really build out your network and put in the investment but the rewards are great. If you do those things and have good leadership (which this company has), you're going to be surrounded by people that are going to push you and compete with you but also support you and understand everything that you're going through.

Pros

Supportive Management (both professionally and personally) Fun Environment Competitive (they will push you but also give you the tools to succeed) Open Communication (I have had a lot of conversations with management, both good and bad, and whether or not you like their response - they do listen to you) Structure (while some people may see the structure as limiting, I recently had a brief stint with another agency and let me tell you... job order/call/feedback models ensure you don't miss any information) Great place for a college grad who enjoys competition and is ready to grind. Your team/office will help you celebrate your wins.

Cons

it's sales. The job is losing more than you win. Understand that. Accept that.

Pros

Overall this has been the most positive environment and company I have worked for. Their excellent training program and attention to detail is amazing. Management is always available to help when you need it, and do whatever they can to make sure you succeed. -Top notch training program -Strong team environment -Investment in personal and professional growth -Opportunity to interact with high level executives in company -Ability to form lasting friendships and business relationships inside and outside of the organization -Opportunity for unusually high income -Clear path to promotion and organic growth

Cons

-You have to navigate the training program prior to getting on to commission. This is to make sure that you have the proper skills before relying solely on performance and commission as your income. Some might see this as negative, but it is the safest and best way to make sure that when you are on commission, you will be ready and able to earn high income. -Sales and the agency recruiting model is performance based once you reach commission. If you are not good at managing your income, or not used to performance based income, this can be stressful. The management team does a quite good job of making sure that you are moved to commission when you are ready. -It is hard. Not rocket science, but a grind. If you are not the type of person to push themselves on a daily basis, or to be uncomfortable in your training and day-to-day work, this will be a difficult place to succeed. A commission based sales position is not for everyone.
