Pros

+Market is cornered, they own the junior level sales hiring in the Bay Area and NY +Most managers care about their teams, and do their best to support them +Strong training when you start, pretty easy to get ramped up and make placements +Fun people, for the most part, and a great office environment +Really great first job, or second job if you are trying to change careers +You can make 100k here, but then will probably burn out and max out unless you want to be a manager

Cons

-Quotas are constantly moving and compensation plans are always changing, they will try and screw you out of commissions if they can. -Things are very inconsistent and often times change for no reason. The CEO (Carolyn Betts) struggles to stick to a plan or company strategy and is very impatient with the business. -CEO can also be pretty inappropriate. She says and does things on the floor that make people uncomfortable. She yells at people, makes inappropriate jokes, and talks about past employees and clients negatively. Also really likes to party with her employees, which is fun at first, but then is pretty uncomfortable. -Management is pretty junior and just follows whatever change is asked of them. No one stands up to senior leaders to push back. -There is a ton of favoritism. If you aren't on the good side of the fearless leader, then you barely exist and are expendable. -Turnover is really bad... like, terrible -There is zero trust of employees. If you want a vacation, to leave early for an appointment, or are at lunch for too long you get questioned or are made to feel guilty. If you aren't in by 8 and stay past 6 you don't care enough. -No upside, all of the clients give their employees equity, even entry level. Not here, which would be okay if they paid better commission.

Pros

This company and role have completely transformed my experience of the corporate world. The people, the challenges, and the leadership have helped me grow every single day. There’s nothing more rewarding than being able to support others—whether they’re in a tough spot or simply looking for their next opportunity, just like I was. The biggest highlight is the leadership: they show up for me consistently, and their support for the entire organization is truly unmatched.

Cons

Only challenges are in the job its self as markets can be tough, but I am always put in a position to be successful.
