Pros

Working Remotely and equipment provided

Cons

The sales team is all that matters to this Charlotte office. There is a severe lack of diversity in the leadership and sales. This is very much a "good ol boys" club. Every year the interns all look exactly the same and they act as if no African Americans or other people of color are qualified for sales or other leadership roles. It's all "we're a family" but the moment you don't go along to get along, then you're not a team player. The medical benefits are also extremely expensive.

Pros

Great work-life balance as a remote employee. Management is approachable and genuinely willing to help when it comes to workload — you never feel like you're on your own.

Cons

Mentorship is largely self-driven. if you don't seek it out yourself, it won't come to you. Systems and internal processes can be slow and tedious, which adds friction to an already fast-paced workload. Compensation does not reflect the complexity or volume of work expected. High performers who are ready for the next step would benefit from clearer, more proactive promotion paths. When that structure is missing, talented people disengage quietly long before they ever leave.
