Pros

- decent starter job post grad with ok salary, most of compensation is based on bonuses from meeting monthly quota - offers experience for account executive/sales/bus devolopment roles, great foundation for beginners to transition to higher paying roles elsewhere - if you excel, there is a direct pipeline to become an account manager and gain management experience early on

Cons

- as this is a sales role where monthly quotas need to be met, there isn't much work life balance - if you're assigned projects with clients in asia or europe, expect to be up late or get up very early with no compensation for overtime - the daily tasks can get monotonous very quickly - it's a revolving door where most people leave after their first yr

Pros

Great people, great working environment, solid leadership that genuinely invests in the development of its people. Excellent place to build skills in talent management, client management, providing excellent service, critical thinking, and to build understanding across a variety of industries.

Cons

Unfortunately, no two business units (split by client type) are made the same. Some have much more abundant opportunity and are growing, where others present a more significant challenge to succeed. Unfortunately this means that skill & drive dont always correlate directly to compensation outcomes.
