Pros

Not a whole lot other than you are paid well if you can get sales

Cons

This company lies through their teeth to both their clients and their employees. Extreme issue with nepotism at the top. Basically of you don't work at the Orlando Location in Disney you won't survive long selling their point system. You are required to memories a speech and if you deviate from this speech you are fired. You are not allowed to be yourself, or fall back on any previous sales experience to succeed. Associates are forced to take the same clients out on tours every three months, and are only to say the exact same speech every time. You are expected to close every sale even when upper management is well aware the clients have not purchased in years and years. Within one year I watched this company fire over 30 of the best salesmen I have ever met in my entire career as well as watched countless new employees let go within 90 days for "performance"; despite being very capable but only ever given bad tours repeatedly, which was not their fault.

Pros

If you want the facade of a fake family this is the place to work. Management has been taught in their own meetings how to groom and manipulate low level staff (i have seen the training materials) and they are very good at it. They think that by saying that everyone is family that they can get people to stay but people soon figure out the facade.

Cons

This company is on a downward trajectory. They're technology is decades old they simply don't have the resources as their competitors and they will have to sell and be absorbed by larger company so you can expect layoffs and more consolidation which just burns out people. Also many things they do and the way the Way they handle certain things causes money to just flow out the door. These things have been brought to the attention of management but they ignore the sieve of money leaving the company because they're embarrassed it may be seen as their responsibility and it really is. Most of the managers don't even know how to run many of these old and new systems. They definitely don't abide by the rule that the manager should know the specific way a job is done with their underlings. Most of them would not be able to take over the job of a low-level staff member. Also there are 0 SOPs. The best you will find is ancient SOPs from the year 2000 to 2015, years outdated and most of the time on systems that are not even used anymore. Management spends more time dumping their work on lower level employees so that they can be freed up for more meetings in which they spend most of their time just joking around and not accomplishing any work. Trust me I've seen it all.
