Pros

-Cool and exciting company to work for -Would go to cool events -Okay pay -Get to travel

Cons

-Big seperation between office staff and account managers -The senior managers put just enough effort in to stay afloat and would value leisure time more than actual work ( Multiple time I have caught them playing video games in the conference room) -Bad communication between Senior account managers and the account managers. -Lots of workplace gossip The Sales trainee role isn't entirely accurate to what the staff actually get you to do. A more accurate title for the role would be an errand person (which is the majority of what you will do) and person who covers account managers during their time off. When you do get to cover account managers and do something that somewhat resembles the sales trainee role, there is no commission on any sales you make and to make matters worse, they dump you into a territory where the accounts you go to would much prefer dealing with their regular making a sales pitch hard.

Pros

Good people, good benefits, good company brand

Cons

No work life balance, mis-labeling of pay scale as commissions when is actually bonus structured. Have to earn the overtime you are forced to work.
