Pros

**Make sure you have a backup job before working here** You will get no notice or review before being terminated no matter what the reason is** Good pay for an entry level job. However the job is not stable. And is not legitimate sales. This is straight up cold calling.

Cons

Here is the low down on this job. I liked it, the atmosphere, the work hard-play hard mentality, all of it. The problem is, is when you get onto the floor after a week of "training" you are assigned a account executive or account executive trainee to "mentor" you. The problem with this is you a literally at the mercy of that employee. If you make a mistake, if they don't like the way you work, or straight up don't like you, you more than likely will not last long. During my time spent at PLS I was on top of the team with communication time and completing all tasks my mentor had me do. They just honestly didn't like me. It was apparent and unfortunately if they want you gone, you will be. There is absolutely no room for proving yourself.

Pros

The Colleagues and relationships you make with your co-workers. Building a book of business, and fast paced environment. Unlimited Growth Potential.

Cons

The direction the company is headed in and the toxicity of an everchanging management structure. As someone who spent almost a decade with PLS; I can say fully and honestly, they do not care about you. This is a company to build experience with and move on from. If you are a $20K rep for more than 6 months, after you roll out, they will move off of you. You will be terminated with no second thought--other reps will poach your clients and potentially ruin any relationships. Furthermore, management tends to play favorites--If you show growth potential, they will feed you, but the moment you fail on one opportunity--you will be turned over. This is not the job for anyone who questions their own ability and work ethic. PLS Hires in classes - they will hire 30-40 people at a time, and in 3 months, 4 to 5 people of that class will remain. The turn over is extremely high and there is no job security. Finally, even if you are a top performer, they will not hesitate to get rid of you.
