Pros

For me, the best part about working here is that I have more control over my career path. The company generously encourages and pays for training and continuing education. Plus it's small, so I'm not pigeonholed. I get to explore different kinds of tools that will pave the way for new career opportunities. The people are smart, talented, and fun to be around. I play basketball and go bowling with co-workers, and there are a lot of outside events like kickball and field day. Lunch is provided on Fridays, which is pretty awesome, and so is the fully stocked kitchen (nearly every day I get a cup-full of cashews and granola and a hot cup of coffee, which is really nice).

Cons

It'd be nice to have better benefits, more vacation/sick days, and matching 401k. The "startup" nature of it can also require some ad hoc projects and a lack of structure, but this can also be a pro, because being able to create processes is a good opportunity to get a big-picture view of the hows and whys of things outside - but very close to - my role.

Pros

I've been working for WPA for just over 2 years and have loved every minute of it. The management in particular were one of the things that attracted me to take the position, as their pragmatic and even-keeled approach would be welcome in most organizations. That level of stability is helpful in a traditionally unstable role (sales). Received the best and most focused sales training of any organization I've worked for and have seen the financial benefits of that investment the company placed in me immediately, and that will be something I'll be able to take into any other position should I leave WPA (which I have zero intention of doing!). The culture is also sales driven, in that the C-level reacts to actual market intel as far as what to offer and sell instead of trying to shove a non-client focused solution on an uninterested public. As a salesperson, it's really about all you could ask for, as the compensation is excellent too. For an office as small as this (compared to other places I've worked), the people get along fantastically well and it's just a fun place to be. This is the most satisfied professionally I've ever been, and the best is yet to come!

Cons

The office is not close to my house, but even within that, management has worked with me to make the schedule and commute work within my families needs, so even that is a pro.
