Business Outlook

Pros

Fantastic learning opportunities/extensive training. You'll meet a lot of great people.

Cons

You won't make a lot of money, even when you bring in revenue. There's an arrogance from the top, that the lowly sales person doesn't make it happen that the brilliant product sells itself and you're fortunate to be there, so they judge you on petty metrics that don't translate to revenue. There's an enormous lack of trust, you're treated like a child. Big brother looms. It's reminiscent of 1984.
