Pros

If I could think of one I would honestly write it...

Cons

Where to start - industries worst commission scheme - lying to onboard people - belittling management, and threatening emails (that you might get fired should they fancy) - awful technology that breaks - out of date offices - male dominant - especially in senior positions - employee welfare - little to none - industry substandard training - zero incentives - pay for your own Christmas party - can’t even buy decent coffee

Pros

Hybrid, Good benefits/PTO, offered “competitions” for gift cards, cares about employees

Cons

As a recruiting manager, I felt that the pay structure was interesting with the base pay being a “draw” - meaning that you base salary is essentially commission paid to you in advance. So if you have some slow months, it rolls over and works yourself into a hole. I think it would be a better structure if it reset every month.
