      Pros

      great culture, good incentives, rewarding sales experience,

      Cons

      expectations are "to best the best" and anything less means daily meetings with managers to discuss why you fell behind, because daily activity expectations are so high one vacation or sick day means you will have a very hard time hitting a monthly goal, they preach job security but only if you are a top performer if not they will cut you free (fire you) very fast. overall very difficult to meet goals and it is incredibly stressful, be ready to get on some kind of medication to calm your nerves and focus.

      Pros

      Great training program, and good mix of roles. You wear a lot of hats at this job which prepares you well for your career. Business and technically focused, and a real product expert type of role.

      Cons

      Its a tough job and a lot of work and long hours. You need to deal with customers constantly through a lot of virtual support.

      Pros

      Fast paced work environment. CRM is the best I have ever had access to. Data tracking and sales insight is top notch. The regional director for TSS in Michigan/Indiana is great to work under. Leads are easily available, the product is great and it’s easy to get in the door places.

      Cons

      Metrics are more focused on quantity over quality. Frequently working 50+ hour weeks. Too many reps per territory and it can create a negative perception. Bonus structure vs straight commission is frusterating. Clear advancement structure however being ranked against peers with different sales targets in frusterating. Feels like a turn and burn type of mentality towards sales reps.
