Pros

The job COULD be ok if you don’t mind being the sales person who never leaves people alone and haunts their dreams until they sign.

Cons

Completely unreasonable sales goals. Not great training (here, watch 3 days worth of videos). Fake frat like sales meetings. Must “drink the koolaid” to keep your job. Benefits, culture and values might be great for everyone else in the company, but being a sale rep in this company is not a sustainable position.
