Great work environment, learn a LOT about the markets, great culture and fellow employees

No commissions, you hit a ceiling at a certain point, market completely oversaturated with the product so really not many firms left to sell too. Completely dysfunctional sales operations where you're constantly tasked with creating reports that should be easily generated out of the CRM
