Pros

"Start-up" culture that was backed by a successful parent company

Cons

Since their acquisition by Ask.com, the business model was altered and subsequently all sales reps were laid-off with a 2 minute notice.

Pros

Relaxed atmosphere Freedom to perform your job the way you see fit High salaries Full benefits Stable company backed by a billion dollar company

Cons

Constant fear of losing your job. You are forced to sign an at will contract and I have seen people fired without a reason. I was constantly watching every action of mine to ensure I never gave them a reason to let me go. It worked until they decided to get a new parent company and they just let everyone go without a reason. I have seen top performing sales reps let go because they just weren't liked that much. I have seen people forced out and let go for absolutely no reason. It's a scary place to be
