Pros

Great benefits, great time off (4 weeks), base salary for a sales position with a commission program, leads come to you

Cons

Multiple incentive plan changes (varied commissions over time for same levels of production), goal is split between existing staff members (so if the staff should be 30 and you've got 25 people on the team, everyone is responsible for the missing five people), difficult to actually use your time off

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
