Pros

Paid training and licensing was a great start. Pay structure with commission is good enough to stick around. monthly incentive prizes too. All went downhill once training is done.

Cons

No matter how successful you are at making these sales, they will still continue practicing extreme micromanagement. Back to back outbound calls non stop. Only 1 break allowed per shift which is 30 minute lunch. no other breaks. very high turnover. Any other task outside of being on an active call is seen as 'unproductive' and will bring your stats below target. This includes meetings and coaching which are mandatory. Not sure what management actually do, they seem to do nothing all day other than ask why you are not on a call and laugh with other managers.

Pros

free coffee, beautiful office and location

Cons

No job security. Heavy micromanagement. If you are new and aren't achieving sales targets you will get fired after 3 weeks. You will get fired if you come back from your break 1 minute late. They fire a few people every week.
