Pros

After working corporate gigs for several years after college, I got tired of playing games and being passed up for promotions. No matter the results I produced, it was hard for me to move up. I was looking for a place with more of an upside. I was willing to start from the bottom, work hard and use my experience to move into management quickly. When I came across The So Cal Group, I was happy to hear that promotions were based on performance rather than tenure, and I was even more happy to hear that it was actually the truth. I've been with the company several months now, I've been really focused on gaining experience in sales and management and I feel like I've been able to really improve my skills. Outside of the structure and opportunity for advancement, I think The So Cal Group offers a great company culture, financial income, control for me as an individual (of my career path) and has given me a chance to influence and help develop others. I'm looking forward to growing my team and helping the business as I work toward management.

Cons

I wish the Leadership Development Program was more well known.

Pros

After college, I dabbled in a few different industries, but couldn't really find a place where I felt like I could both add value, and gain something for myself at the same time. I searched online to see what was out there, and was intrigued by The So Cal Group's Leadership Development Program. I was a little intimidated by the sales and marketing industry at first, but I quickly realized I could master the skills I needed, if I followed their outlined training program. I'm really glad I stuck with it because, I feel like so far I've gained a lot of other transferable skills that I can use no matter where I end up in life. After I mastered the basics of the campaign, I was more involved in the business training portion of their Leadership Program. They coach and develop employees on topics like business finance, Franklin Covey priority management, interviewing, training others, public speaking, and business development. I think it's great that I get all this business experience by showing up to work willing to learn.

Cons

The only reasons I think people wouldn't like working for the company would be if they don't want to work hard or be asked to perform, or if they don't want to put in the effort to learn basic sales and marketing. You have to have a student mentality, good work ethic, and good attitude. If you don't, this is not for you.
