Pros

The people who work here are truly amazing. The CEO and upper-level leaders especially care about you and your goals. The experience and skills acquired are great. You truly will learn how to interview, train, lead, organize, become solution-oriented and hold a no-excuses mentality.

Cons

It is pure commission (although there is a salary option available, no one takes it because you have to hit such a high sales quota that you would be making more on commission if you hit the quota needed for salary). Transportation costs are not reimbursed (except for in your taxes, once a year- hard to budget out) Work-life balance is absurd- you will work upwards of 60 hours a week, and it will always feel that you should be working more (aka working Saturdays, filling out paperwork and 1 on 1s during the evening). A good portion of the day that you are "working" you will not be able to make a dime. These are morning and afternoon "atmospheres" and meetings- about 3 hours a day. Also, the time it takes to get to your territory- anywhere from 15 minutes to over an hour each way depending on your territory. For most people, it seemed like about 4 hours of their work day they were not compensated for. There are no paid holidays, sick days, vacation days, etc.
