Vantaggi
The people you work with are great. And if you make close friends with them your work-life balance will appear to exist. The dress code is casual and at least in the Toronto office they tried to make the atmosphere good with music. You get money loaded into an account for snacks in the canteen because there's no convenience store nearby.
Svantaggi
I really wanted to like this place. Maybe I actually did for a while. They really don't care about you. No matter what they tell you, if you have any sense of self worth you'll know better. While I was there I saw managers get demoted for trivial matters like not hitting unreasonable minute minimums because they chose to take care of their teams instead, because they decided to dissolve the sales group while he was on vacation, and one who was promoted only so they could hide that they were firing a bunch of people. That last one got demoted after giving up her book of business and then they gave her some high quota so she'd quit. Did I mention they fired a bunch of people? They tried to keep it quiet but it was barely legal. That was after they surprised the Utah office by laying everyone off. Now they have a tiered system that they'll tell you will help everyone sell more. What they don't tell you is they're handcuffing. New people who sell early can make a lot. If you have experience, do that for a few months to a year and get the hell out of dodge. It won't be worth it after that, and not even before unless you have a pretty thick skin and don't mind being pressured into working through your breaks. It's already a nine hour day. They say the Toronto office is better than the others. If that's true I feel really bad for the people in the Texas office.
