Pros

It's indoors, air conditioned/heated, they have bathrooms (and stock toilet paper), running water, and some vending machines. They don't block facebook. That's pretty much all the pro's to working here.

Cons

Everything. You live at work, in training you babysit someone else's account and even other peoples, whom live in other states, that you'll never know. You're just a number to them. The program they have employs you for 1 day under 6 months- if you don't make it, they fire you the day shy of 6 months to where they don't have to pay you unemployment. When you stop babysitting your "trainers" account, you go into "sales" which includes making over 100 cold calls a day (2 hours of talk time) to companies that want nothing to do with you. Their list is extremely exhausted, they want you to be in work at 7:15 am, and build your book of business WITH the list of potential clients you find on your own, outside of work of course- which is after hours or on the weekends. This job requires you to either live at work and find that 1 diamond in the rough, or you get lucky and just so happen to call a decent customer on the right day. When you get customers, the truck drivers fall out on you, they deliver the shipment late, or there is some other kind of issues that pulls money out of your pocket. All of this, and you only have a few weeks to meet a quota. Again, not worth the hassle. The "supervisors" are just people that have done well in sales. They have ZERO leadership qualities. You are essentially an ant under their shoe until you go out onto your own. There are a few quality ones, but overall, there is no "management" in this place. The only people that matter, are people that average $7,000 a week in sales. Enjoy!

Pros

Frat House environment if that's what you're into.

Cons

Where do I even start.... My first week there the sales manager, whose account I was supposed to look over and be trained by, was gone for the whole week. The desk spot they put me at was next to this JBL party box, making it virtually impossible to communicate over the phone. When you're in the training phase you literally do all the work for the account manager, then you're expected to make cold calls to people that want no part in TQL. When you do get someone on the phone and make a sale, you wont be seeing any of that money. They have a commission draw set up where you have to be making a certain amount of revenue before you can make commission- thus leaving you to the measly 43k salary. These recruiters and managers SELL you a false dream, the turnover rate there is astronomical for a reason. They will hire anyone that'll learn the system, use them for labor for 6 months, cut them when they don't meet the ridiculous KPI metrics. To be actually successful here you either have to work near 60+ hours a week for YEARS waking at 4am to "snipe" accounts that have been released due to inactivity, or be handed an account by a retiring SR level manager. RUN from this company!
