Pros

I was fresh out of college when I got here and I learned a lot of useful lessons for sales professionals. I had to complete 100 phone calls by my managers order otherwise I couldn't leave for lunch. So it was good to show my next employer I could "complete the grind".

Cons

In January of 2016 our President urged employees to go onto this website and give positive reviews. Apparently he and the rest of our leaders believe the negative reviews were dishonest. Being in this place for 3 years I've witnessed so much disfunction. Every year sales compensation plans are switched up to make bonuses harder to obtain. Our VPs rarely interact with anyone outside of the "inner circle" of tenured sales guys who have been around forever. Only a few of our sales managers are experts within our field. There are a handful of reps who have been promised better assignments and territories, but are just strung along without and real improvements to their assignment. I could go on and on describing the issues and lack of leadership within our company, but our boss will just solicit more positive reviews by people who haven't been around long enough to know the truth.

Pros

This company would be marginally better than collecting public assistance checks from the government. I give work/life balance 5 stars, because once you resign yourself to the fact this is a dead end job, you can do whatever you want until you leave. The key is not caring one iota about what your manager says.

Cons

Main product line = a business commodity that nobody cares about Technical (IT) resources = obsolete leadership = incompetent compensation structure = complete bull<expletive> honesty and integrity = never met him

1980s style leadership

Pros

20 word miniumum? Let me just say that MOS has business suites at many sports venues. That's pretty cool. #gladhanding

Cons

Upper management here is nothing more than a cliche of 1980s bad sales practices. Save yourself the pain and agony, and watch Glengarry Glen Ross on Netflix for entertainment instead. Don't drive your career into the ground by taking a sales job at MOS. -horrible leadership -dishonestly -micromanagement -lack of ethics in dealing with customers and employees -unnecessarily complex commission structure and comp plan -outdated CRM technology -obselete sales strategy (door to door for enterprise sales? Seriously, WTF?) I don't know how this place keeps getting awards like "best and brightest" employers.
