Pros

great people, great benefits, great snacks (not kidding the snack selection is top tier), flexible, not a hard job to do if you are coachable

Cons

corporate bs, little upward mobility even if you are successful, you do a lot of annoying tedious tasks on top of your job that don't feel like your responsibility, pay is meh, job gets boring a repetitive as I'd imagine most cold calling focused jobs do
