Pros

There are no pros to this job specifically, I did meet some nice people though who also left because they did not like it.

Cons

By far the worst company I have ever worked for. If you start this job out of college, just know - most sales jobs are not like this. You have many options outside of this company, you can go somewhere that respects you, your time, and the value you bring. Don't let the upper management make you believe this is the place to be - it is quite the opposite.

Pros

The product is cool and if properly onboarded customers will get value from it. Coworkers are fairly social If you are new to sales would be a good place to learn the basics

Cons

Probably the cheapest company I have ever worked for. Benefits are below standard, they changed the commission plan every year I was there so that you would make less money, and you are expected to share hotel rooms when you travel. Look up Meltwater on Reddit or LinkedIn. They are known for very aggressive sales tactics which you will be forced to implement on your customers. A culture of micromanagement that comes from the top down. Virtually no avenue for promotion unless you are willing to move or get lucky and someone leaves.
