Pros

Salary Cool coworkers Chicago office is laid back.

Cons

Management is brutal. Training feels cultish. Not a lot of opportunity for new sales staff. All good business is taken by seasoned reps. Unrealistic goals which means not a lot of opportunity for commission. High turnover Do not treat customers well. Lots of pressure

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
