Pros

Great health benefits. Can engage clients in interesting discussions. Best fit for less mature salespeople to build contacts and resume.

Cons

Retaining clients is much harder than described during interviews. To reduce cancels, Sales has to stay involved in service. To overcome often huge losses, Sales must make these up so your high quota just increased. All this happens while your daily activities are micro managed for the top priority, net growth. Forget about PTO. Nonstop stress and scrutiny has more good reps leaving.

Pros

Being a globally recognized company makes it easy to consistently engage clients. Great benefits. Amazing people (managers and colleagues) For the most part there is a clear path to success and promotions. Executives listen to feedback after every internal call to help guide strategy.

Cons

In office mandate increasing in office days from once a month to once a week. Need to live in Florida or Texas because of the in office mandate. Promotions take a while since there are many people going for the same roles. Hard to reach clients and constant territory’s shifting makes it difficult to achieve the numbers you and management expect.
