Pros

-Flexible Schedule -Incredible co-workers, most other coworkers are like-minded, work-hard play-hard mentality. -Best sales training from experienced managers who push you and get the best from you - best in class job security - best products on the market, almost always have advantage on competition so not always that hard to sell

Cons

-expectations -territories, you can't decide where you are stationed. Some parts of the country will not match with your personality or provide you the sales/commission as better territories -Commission is indirectly capped. No matter how much you sell, they will raise your goal and adjust commission even with promotions. Max is $250k and under

Pros

Fast paced work environment. CRM is the best I have ever had access to. Data tracking and sales insight is top notch. The regional director for TSS in Michigan/Indiana is great to work under. Leads are easily available, the product is great and it’s easy to get in the door places.

Cons

Metrics are more focused on quantity over quality. Frequently working 50+ hour weeks. Too many reps per territory and it can create a negative perception. Bonus structure vs straight commission is frusterating. Clear advancement structure however being ranked against peers with different sales targets in frusterating. Feels like a turn and burn type of mentality towards sales reps.
