Pros

Pros: Friendly team members; colleagues were generally supportive. Some flexibility with scheduling.

Cons

Repetitive, boring work, mind-numbing, and it brings you closer to depression than anything else. Travelling to the office multiple times a week. Cons: High-pressure sales targets made the role extremely stressful at times. Management often provided inconsistent guidance, making it difficult to know priorities. Communication from leadership could be slow, leading to confusion or last-minute changes. Limited opportunities for career growth or promotion within the role. Advice to Management: Provide clearer guidance and more consistent support for new hires. Not so fair as they are always banging on about.

Pros

Some members of the company are the best people you’ll ever meet.

Cons

Genuinely a complete mess. Incompetent, passive aggressive leadership that repeatedly makes both poor and confusing company decisions. I have some absolutely crazy stories from things I’ve witnessed here. There’s things that are so bizarre and dysfunctional, they belong in an alternate reality.
