Pros

Salary is very negotiable, they HAVE to pay for talent because all their talent is gone Benefits are nice Quarterly trips all expenses paid to chicago New Iphone and macbooks for outside reps

Cons

Company is fighting a losing battle and constantly short changing the sales reps on their hard earned commissions. Merchants know the product doesnt work anymore. There is little to no repeat business on the merchant end.

Pros

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Cons

Management doesn’t care about you. Unrealistic goals. Everyone at 30-40% of quota. Complicated quota attainment system. Your job is to ask for 70% of margins for small businesses that have only 10-15% margin budgets
