Pros

Nice campus, nice benefits, covered parking (saves damage to car during hail or snow), great amenities (gym, on site lunch room/restaurant, etc.) Starbucks near by.

Cons

Company is a disaster! Long hours, impossible expectations, poor management, poor leadership, highly political, very few departments that function or interact well. CEO and high level leadership team, very disapointing - disjointed, disconnected and really don't show much empathy or concern for their employee population. Worst company I've ever worked for, so resigned.

Pros

1) the benefits and PTO are decent 2) working from can be considered a benefit 3) I enjoy the work and the clients.

Cons

1) income is capped and they use metrics designed to prevent consultants from maximizing payout. 2) the compensation plan has changed 4 times in 2 years….this year alone I am on my 3rd compensation plan. 3) lack of growth both in income and career 4) Management is useless. They over promise and under deliver. I am a 14yr professional and my income is lower now then any point in my recent career. Please note, I am a Top Producer and currently lead my team in monthly production. So I am not some inexperienced lazy salesperson, I am a under-compensated producer and closer.
