Pros

Incredible company and office culture, as well as limitless opportunity for growth. If you work hard, you will be recognized for it, and it will pay off! They give you the tools and training to become successful, and then let you figure out your own way of doing things. It is an awesome feeling to wake up and actually be excited to go to work every day. Brooksource embraces each employee as family. We work hard and play hard together. Couldn't have asked for a better company to work for!

Cons

The nature of the industry can be hectic at times and a lot of things are out of your control. You have to ride the ups and downs with a level-head, and can't stress over the little things or be too high-strung or you will get burnt out.

Pros

This company relies on growth from within, so if they see potential in you, they will help you get to that next level. There is always a huge support system around you at all times.

Cons

The amount of support can quickly turn into micromanaging, and promoting from within is great until you start protecting those who earned their title sheerly through tenure or a 'good ol' boy' system. Also, the pay is abysmal. They pay you the absolute minimum in salary and the rest is based off of commission, so even the best reps can lose everything on a clients whim, going from making almost $200K a year to $30K in the blink of an eye. They say they have protections in place for that but that's only for the people who earn the company millions of dollars for 4 consecutive years. Also, there really is no such time as a work/life balance here. They throw parties to make you think you do, but if you are out on PTO you will still be judged by your KPI's while you were out, and they expect you to pick up the phone, regardless of if you are on vacation or at your grandfathers funeral. "Still gotta keep you numbers up!"
