Pros

If you have an insane drive, do not mind working 100+ hour weeks for $40k in pay, and have a voracious appetite for cold calling, you can be one of the very few employees who climbs the ladder fairly quickly.

Cons

* A factory - they recruit and hire entry level college graduates and burn and churn them until they either give up or get promoted. When I was there, there was a 90% turnover at the account manager level * No yearly performance review process in place * No management training, so whoever you are reporting into will likely not care about your development there or even know how to foster your growth * Insane hours with minimal pay up front * Gives false expectations to everyone they hire about the potential for career growth

Pros

The work isn't too tough. The people in the office are skilled and pleasant. There are decent benefits and you can work from home for 2 days.

Cons

The pay is bad. Decent for when you first start but raises are small and infrequent. Bonuses are even smaller and more infrequent. We were fully remote but slowly have been forced back into office for no good reason.
