Pros

Great place to kick off a career, the entire team is altruistic willing to share advice and experiences to help you thrive. In my three years, I have had consistent access to our CEO, Founder, and Upper-level management.

Cons

This job is not easy, the focus is on hunting new accounts and business units. Our sales process is great but focused on doing the right things not necessarily the easy things.
