Pros

atmosphere is lively and you co workers are easy to get along with and the performance managers have all graduated from the top schools in the nation

Cons

as a sales agent they force you to work from 8-5 monday - friday if you ask to work weekends or put in overtime they wont' let you. the starting pay for a typical sales agent is about $80,000 per year which is not bad for a start but the performance mangers are never there and always getting time off and they make well over $150,000 per year, so i don't see why that is. the great part about the job is your never locked to a headset like some of the posts on here suggest. you can get up whenever you want and as many times as you like, especially after a rough call, workforce is only there to fill some empty seats because being a workforce manager is really a brainless job, all they do is monitor how many times per day you use the restoom if you go over 10 times in a day they lock the restroom so only people with a certain code can get in. the performance mangers when they are their mostly watch movies and television and look up occasionaly to see if your on the phone. I'm not a sales agent anymore because i found a job that i went to school for. but if your looking for a long time career red ventures is the place, sales will never be the same once you've worked here.

Pros

Strong ownership, opportunity to manage people early, great people, nice campus. You will work on interesting problems and external companies. Great training if the space interests you.

Cons

Business future is uncertain, up or out management principles. New senior leaders somewhat disconnected from the day-to-day. Commute from Charlotte is horrible.
