Pros

Offer good stepping stone to begin career. Can make very good money if you put in the effort and follow the process. Have to have self discipline to do well. You will meet a lot of like minded people and enjoy the people you work with.

Cons

Despite claims to the contrary, the management style here is very micromanaged. Senior leadership follows outdated methods and lacks genuine technological insight. For a company that brands itself as a tech firm, they hardly utilize the technology they've invested in, and few employees understand it. Sales are primarily relationship-based, with little emphasis on teaching problem-solving or effective sales techniques, especially at the leadership level

Pros

Decent salary base, probably could be a really good paying job if the job market was better

Cons

Definitely a typical, corporate sales culture where you are defined by your metrics and your metrics only. They are money grabbers, and their commission structure isn't that great. After 2 years you lose 50% of your commission from contractors and they eliminated early release days before holidays. My office started becoming a "bro culture" and the leader was clearly trying to act like "one of the guys" with the males in the office. If your market is slow with reqs, they expect you to reach out to other offices for subs which is hard to do when other offices favor their own teams' recruiters. They'll likely give you a picked over req or one not close to the money that their own team didn't want to work on. I had to reach out to other offices daily to basically beg for a req to work on to hit my metrics. To add to it, the PTO structure for salaried employees is not how they described it when I joined. 17 PTO days total (including sick/personal time btw) and it is actually accrued throughout the year. I had to use PTO for sick time and a vacation, so when I left I had to write them a check for my balance! Talk about a way to really give someone the boot when they're on their way out the door.
