Pros

Overtime pay, colleagues are friendly

Cons

Absolutely zero direction from the first day of working at Zenefits. Multiple manager changes, different directions and goals for sales reps on a monthly cadence. Too many cooks in the kitchen; leadership loves to suggest new ideas, but no one stops to think through the impact of these changes. Reps basically have a new job to do month to month. Less than 20% of reps hit their quota number. Managers have "favorites" that get prioritized over other individuals that are outperforming them. Not a good culture to be a part of. Would not recommend.
