Pros

High turnover equated to loads of opportunity for newer sales people to move into management Solid benefits package Nice base salary and ability to earn substantial bonuses A large 'family' culture in most regions of the country

Cons

Management and mid-senior managers put in loads of hours and often heavy field travel. Hardcore politics in certain groups or regions. You are in or you are out. Same pay structure in all US markets despite great differences in cost of living. Generally meant lower quality hires in high cost markets.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
