Pros

Our strength is that we specialize in a few products: DIA, P2P and Colocation are our core. The mission is simple and rigorous. Pay is good and the commission plan is simple and seems to rarely change.

Cons

This is a tough job for the sales force. Lots of calls, stops by's and getting in front of the DM is a must. This job is unkind to those who waste time and much of the salesforce is nowhere near 100%. In the office bell to bell everyday making the most of every second.

Pros

Free coffee and soda that's it.

Cons

Where do you even start. The company has no direction and the stock has dropped over $70 in a year. All the cutbacks that they make to cover losses come from reps compensation. You have to clock in and clock out everyday like you work in a candy factory and if you miss clocking in or clocking out they fire you. So many lazy people .They equip you with a laptop from 2017 that barely works and an iPhone SE from 2006. Most of the prospects block the numbers so cogent can't call . They have no one to sell to.
