Pros

Great coworkers who genuinely care about one another and many front-line managers do their best to support their teams despite constant organizational challenges. The company can provide valuable experience in sales, customer retention, and learning how to operate in a very fast-paced environment.

Cons

Compensation is far below market despite leadership positioning it as competitive, with commission structures that are unpredictable and often unattainable. Job security feels entirely dependent on management style rather than consistent standards, with some employees coached fairly while others are disciplined or terminated over minor mistakes. The sales organization creates significant downstream issues through aggressive sales practices, forcing retention teams into highly reactive customer conversations. Attrition is the worst I have experienced in my career, promotion into management often results in a pay cut for top performers, and the culture creates constant anxiety where employees feel like they are walking on eggshells. Top performers are often not the most skilled employees, but those who have learned how to manipulate loopholes and work around processes.
