Pros

Lots of opportunity in this career field as 93% of reps wash out in the first 6 months to a year. Ability to make good money, as long as you have a huge wealthy network. Offers the ability to set your own hours, IF you can last more than 3 years. Starting out is a grind which is why I rate it a 2.

Cons

"What have you done for me lately" attitude by partners at the office I worked for. Minimal training for those new to the industry or out of school which makes it extremely difficult to establish credibility in an extremely competitive landscape. Poor leadership shown by managers, "Book appointments and let me know if you want me to go with you" mentality. Out-dated presentation and approach to gaining clients.

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Cared more about building a program to attract interns than future employees.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
