Cons
- Little work/life balance BUT with changes to Exempt status' if you are in a certain class, your hours (even on salary) are compensated - Base compensation is below technology industry standard - Little TRUE growth opportunity within this model (there are promotions, but really an increase in sales quota and increase in base pay) unless you want to switch departments outside of sales. - Work you hard and fast - lot get burned out quickly due to the model. - No travel - There are still some sales members that are cut-throat but there are processes in place to protect active deals.
