It's also helpful to hear your perspective on how we can continuously improve. With respect to what you've mentioned around a lack of sales support, we'd strongly encourage you to raise this with your manager so that you can get the support you need. Thanks again for the review.

Pros

The people are genuinely friendly and supportive. There's a sense of camaraderie among coworkers — most are doing their best under tough circumstances. You might gain some experience quickly if you're proactive and a fast learner.

Cons

Pay is extremely low compared to the workload and stress level. Very little to no formal training — you're mostly left to figure things out on your own. The environment is high-pressure and often chaotic, which makes it hard to succeed without burning out. There's a lot of fake positivity — leadership tends to brush over real issues with surface-level encouragement. Expectations can be unrealistic, especially without the right tools or guidance.
