Pros

Good Culture - After work drinks and lunches. Knowledgable managers who are approachable. Money. Training in Connecticut. Career Plan - there is a career plan structure in place. Work hard and you can move up.

Cons

Micromanagement - a lot of it. Quality of work - Certain markets should not have whole teams devoted to them. Management should do some market research and apply varied targets across different teams rather than blanket targets which see certain teams excel and while others crumble, not due to their selling capability but the market in which they are confined to. KPI's - 60 calls a day is not achievable - the time people waste trying to get to this number takes away from quality work they could be doing. It also seriously crushes employees morale - sort it out or people will leave. Training - The training, albeit in Connecticut, is poor. It is done by people who have never sold anything before. The training should focus more on selling points of the product and have practical interactive tasks rather than 5 days of tedious lectures.

Pros

You get experience prospecting, presenting, and account management. Young coworkers.

Cons

Where do I begin? You think wow this job sounds great! They are relaxed and I can get some great experience. Well think again. Here is my experience: - you HAVE to prospect after work and on weekends to even have a hope of hitting your quota. Prospecting consists of having to sift through at least 10 cards and reading through them in their homegrown CRM that is crap. It is extremely tedious and terrible. There is NO lead generation and most good companies have been beaten to death. - 60 call/150 min minimum. Yes this is achievable if you call fake numbers. Don't kid yourself everyone does and the management did. Is this the best way to run a company? Emails are not tracked and are by far the best way to communicate as people are way more responsive. - Young coworkers can be fun, but it also means a lot of gossip and cattiness. - Management is completely inexperienced and terrible. There was only one good manager. The others had so many issues I do not even know where to start. There is minimal training for them so they end up just micro managing you and not acting professional. - There is no help if you need it. It is a very sink or swim mentality. Your manager is just constantly interviewing people to fill in positions. I saw around 40 people leave in less then a year. High turnover=terrible moral. There were only a handful of people that were not looking to leave when I left. -They tell you there are growth opportunities, they lie. The recruiters and managers will tell you anything to get you in the door since people quit pretty much every week. I will leave it at that. If you think you will have a different experience, you wont. My advice to you- do not think to yourself that you will get more experience here. It is better to get in a position of just prospecting and working your way up at a good company that people enjoy working for. I PROMISE you that it will be way more worth it in the end and will not burn you out like Indeed. Also these reviews are not from people who were fired or just the disgruntled, this is the unfortunate truth. Do yourself a favor if you are interviewing and contact some people over linked in and ask them what they think (make sure they have been there for over 3 months)
