Pros

Brooksource is a great place to work, filled with great people who will help you throughout every step in your career. No one is out here to see people fail and whether it is at the beginning of your career or through a tough spot, there are resources to help you to become successful. It is an excellent opportunity to work with high enterprise clients and some of the biggest names in technology within the Seattle Market.

Cons

You have to have that constant mentality of wanting to be the best and do the best. You need to want it. Sometimes there are some late nights, but in the end, you get what you put into it. In this industry, you are dealing with lots of variables and you need to be able to do the best you can to control them and if things do not turn out the way you expect them, you have to have the mentality to push on.

Pros

This company relies on growth from within, so if they see potential in you, they will help you get to that next level. There is always a huge support system around you at all times.

Cons

The amount of support can quickly turn into micromanaging, and promoting from within is great until you start protecting those who earned their title sheerly through tenure or a 'good ol' boy' system. Also, the pay is abysmal. They pay you the absolute minimum in salary and the rest is based off of commission, so even the best reps can lose everything on a clients whim, going from making almost $200K a year to $30K in the blink of an eye. They say they have protections in place for that but that's only for the people who earn the company millions of dollars for 4 consecutive years. Also, there really is no such time as a work/life balance here. They throw parties to make you think you do, but if you are out on PTO you will still be judged by your KPI's while you were out, and they expect you to pick up the phone, regardless of if you are on vacation or at your grandfathers funeral. "Still gotta keep you numbers up!"
