Pros

- decent starter job post grad with ok salary, most of compensation is based on bonuses from meeting monthly quota - offers experience for account executive/sales/bus devolopment roles, great foundation for beginners to transition to higher paying roles elsewhere - if you excel, there is a direct pipeline to become an account manager and gain management experience early on

Cons

- as this is a sales role where monthly quotas need to be met, there isn't much work life balance - if you're assigned projects with clients in asia or europe, expect to be up late or get up very early with no compensation for overtime - the daily tasks can get monotonous very quickly - it's a revolving door where most people leave after their first yr
