Pros

Offered flexibility with your time, but that was more tied to manager than the company itself

Cons

Insider baseball leading to constant layoffs, politics, and insurmountable dysfunction. Layoffs every 4-6 months for the 4 years that I worked there. Could not seem to figure out the issues were stemming from the leadership. Either their hands were tied by the founders/board or they were the founders/board creating issues and replaying the same mistakes over and over again for the 4 years I was there.

Pros

Last resort for reps who desperately need a job

Cons

-company hires reps based on their current book of biz. Once they feel the rep exhausts their leads to move over, they look to replace them -toxic management that never changes -no 401k match -CROs seem to last about a year -favoritism towards tenured reps -lose credibility with your clients when campaigns don’t perform and they get bad support - very low company morale -no one gets promoted -low stock price -frequent layoffs -horrible public reviews/reputation to have to explain to clients, and your friends and family
