Pros
-Training is excellent — but only because it’s outsourced to a third party.
-Semi-hybrid schedules with some flexibility.
-Fun company outings… if you survive long enough to attend.
-Perfect fit if you’re a “good ol’ boy” or prefer to shrink yourself
-Commission is great until you ponder the structure too deeply.
Cons
-Soul-crushing micromanagement: Every single email I sent for over a year was rewritten to match my manager’s wording — every one. I can’t make that up.
-Creativity and originality are lip service only. They say they want fresh ideas but punish anything that deviates from “the way it’s always been done.”
• Obsessive cold-call quotas:
• Tools for email outreach exist, but you’ll be discouraged from using them.
• 100 calls in a day? You’re a hero. Five meaningful scheduled calls that actually move the needle? You’ll be asked what you were doing all day.
-Closed-circle culture: Managers, partners, mentors, and HR protect each other at all costs. If you don’t conform 100%, you’re disposable — no matter how many placements you make.
• Advancement appears skewed toward straight, white, cisgender, frat-minded men. If that’s not you, expect to fight uphill for recognition and your position
