Pros

There are great people to work with, a diverse group but mostly young people. Business casual and a fun environment.

Cons

Management is a joke. The direction is wishy washy. Some days it's great to be there, but most is a threatening, high anxiety attitude. No positivity which is a downfall for a sales atmosphere.

Pros

The company culture is so awesome! You can tell the Owner and Managers understand the importance of a good atmosphere and they truly care about making our office a positive work environment.

Cons

You MUST be on your A-game! Management will always be there to help you out but you have to listen and absorb the information they provide, If you are not a self starter and let outside factors effect your mental state this is definitely not the job for you.

Pros

There are none. Positive reviews are obviously paid recruiters. They made sure to take down my last review because it exposed them.

Cons

The most unprofessional workplace I have ever been a part of. People are throwing toys and food while you’re trying to make calls. They have no understanding of the market. You will constantly be undercut by the competition and management will have nothing to say. The CEO is a complete Chad with a god complex. Fires people for taking their state protected breaks. You will be forced to work through lunch every Friday and constantly have to go in on Saturdays or you’re “weak”. An actual quote from the CEO, called the entire sales staff weak because he doesn’t realize how out of touch he is. So the work-life balance is basically nonexistent. Turn over is higher than restaurants so that should tell you plenty. And the best part, they completely restructured the pay structure twice while I was there (90 days). So even if you by some off chance start making money they will find a way to take it from you. I would say this place is close to shutting down but the CEO clearly started this with daddy’s money so they will just be in the red for years and years and blame you the worker.
