Pros

Challenging sales opportunity for new sales reps right out of school, helps you develop your thick skin, and opportunity to make a good amount of money if you stick it out and get better opportunities.

Cons

Cult-like culture, no training, abrasive management style, spend before and after hours developing your own lists to call. The people who work here eat, sleep and breathe this company, and if you don't share the passion you won't last. There are no cubicles so you are completely exposed. Management does not provide any training before throwing you on the phone, and you learn by your manager yelling ridiculous things into your ear while you're on the phone with the one of the 5 realistic contacts you will have in a day after making upward to 200 calls. You can never put the phone down except during lunch which is usually eaten by everyone in the office. There are times when you can't sit down until you schedule a demo.

Pros

Opportunity to make money in long term. Large target market. Growing company. Young environment/coworkers (sales team must avg age around 25).

Cons

Long hours, must do outside work on weekends and during lunches in order to keep up with it all. Little to no information given to you as a new employee until after the first month or so. One must be able to literally scream and yell at customers in order to please management. Extremely high paced and cut throat environment. Average over 150 phone calls a day. Not allowed to sit at times and not allowed to hang up phone except for lunch hour. Coworkers and Management breath down your throat constantly to ensure you are staying loud, and fast paced. Pay is okay but hours make it equal close to 12/hour in the end.

Pros

Nice team, work hard play hard mentality

Cons

No commission. Start at 7.30 and leaving at 6pm is considered lazy. You have virtually no lunch break and they encourage aggressive telephone etiquette which borders on rudeness. Their staff attrition rate is atrocious, many would describe it as a revolving door sales culture.
