Pros

Every field rep is given an Audi and the benefits are good. Brand recognition made getting in the door possible.

Cons

The executive team had extremely high and unrealistic matrix-based expectations of those working in the field and created conflict between peers. They had little regard for work/life balance and the turnover was extremely high. For such a large company, they had horrible backend systems that made doing your job nearly impossible. Constant grind that left many resentful and miserable.
