Pros

- Challenging and competitive (in a good way) - Fun environment and incredible colleagues - An executive and management team that truly cares about the company and each individual - Requires independence to manage your own day-to-day tasks - Approachable and supportive mentors - Great benefits

Cons

- Work hard play hard mentality can lead to long hours - As another review stated, definitely not a place if you need to be handheld and coached at every turn (not necessarily a bad thing!)

Pros

- I had a great experience with Managers & Directors when I was there. Even the most sr level leaders offer up their time to the most junior level sales folks. - Fun times with colleagues. Lots of entertaining personalities in break-out sessions in the office and lots of laughs at happy hours. - Competitive commission. You get out what you put in. - The Marketing Programs Associate role is a great entry level job out of school. Opportunities for promotions if you're consistent, communicative about your goal to be promoted, and patient.

Cons

- I had asked for remote flexibility and didn't get it (maybe others will have more luck). - Often the problems sales folks run into are diagnosed by sr leadership as the salespeople's mistake, rather then a flaw in the business. Sometimes that's fair. That said, the squeaky wheel gets the grease as they say... if you keep going back to management with well-reasoned issues/arguments, then eventually they'll work with you to find a solution - not just throwing suggestions at you about what/how you ought to be better. - The role stays essentially the same regardless of level.

Pros

Great coworkers and training program. You'll definitely learn a lot in your first year and have fun doing it.

Cons

Most of the management for non-senior reps is very micromanaging. Be prepared to get messages from your manager every hour or two about one thing or another. If you don't crush your quotas, also expect a lot of scrutiny and 1:1s with multiple managers from the first sign of struggle. Most people in the org have either been there for 5+ years (senior reps) or less than 2 years, with most people leaving around 2-3 years in, so take that as you will.
