Pros

* Strong earning potential for those who can consistently perform * Some leaders are genuinely supportive and invested in their teams * Good place to build prospecting discipline and resilience

Cons

* Daily expectation of 50–75 outbound calls creates a high-pressure, volume-driven environment * Inconsistent leadership across markets — expectations, accountability, and support vary widely * Perceived favoritism and unequal distribution of support/resources, particularly when certain individuals receive additional help hitting numbers while others are expected to figure it out independently * Uneven enforcement of performance standards — some underperformance is tolerated long-term, while others are let go quickly after short downturns * Lack of consistency in pricing flexibility, making it harder to stay competitive in certain deals * Operational issues (billing errors, deductions, carrier payments, etc.) can negatively impact client experience * Sales reps may be financially impacted by service-related credits, even when issues are outside of their control * Growth is prioritized, but internal hiring and support infrastructure lag behind, hurting both employees and clients * Advancement opportunities are discussed, but often come with increased workload (supporting new hires, struggling reps, etc.) without clear progression

Pros

Great culture and solid pay structure Good upper management Can Promote quickly

Cons

If you are in an expansion market then odds are you have a manager that had 3 good months as a business consultant and they made them a sales manager. I knew more than my manager. Would ask for help and was basically just told “your doing great, there isn’t much to change” then I get placed on a PIP and still no real help. Always cancelling any meeting we actually had scheduled to help.
