Pros

Good brand name, uncapped commissions, nice office

Cons

Lack of work-life balance. They’ll tell you they pride in work-life balance but let’s not kid around - it’s sales. Be ready to put in very long hours. You also owe the company money, meaning you must sell enough every month to cover your base salary. If not, you’ll keep owing the company your monthly salary until you can pay it off. Company not willing to forgo this structure even during global layoffs and with clients not hiring, so you have to work extra hours just to stay afloat...as if the usual days already aren’t difficult enough

Pros

Hybrid, Good benefits/PTO, offered “competitions” for gift cards, cares about employees

Cons

As a recruiting manager, I felt that the pay structure was interesting with the base pay being a “draw” - meaning that you base salary is essentially commission paid to you in advance. So if you have some slow months, it rolls over and works yourself into a hole. I think it would be a better structure if it reset every month.
