Pros

The company had really good happy hours and events to attend. Food almost everyday.

Cons

Awful management team. Everyone will plot against you if they see potential. Very political culture and one boss there is a weak male figure in the office. If he doesn’t like you all the other managers follow suit. Mind you he has no power at all yet managers at his same level report to him. Must be experienced to work there really come in with a book of business with accounts that have lots of money because that’s all they care about. They will use and abuse you then cast you to the side make sure you have a second job to lean on. Frequent layoffs no managers of color either. Lots of red flags in the begging do not ignore them.

Pros

The team is very straightforward and helpful and they are willing to give you whatever tools necesary to win. One of the best teams I have ever worked with to be honestly.

Cons

Not many but you need to be flexible with hours as this is production work but that is industry standard.

Pros

I had a great manager, and the office environment was very good. Definitely a good set of people to work with. Insurance was really good, which I desperately needed when I took the job. They provide snacks and coffee. Yes, that is one of the pros.

Cons

There are a lot of cons. Pay is low, prospecting is difficult based on the companies text stack. Their salesforce development is weak and confusing. The company is $5 billion in debt, and have been making huge layoffs, including hosts on the air. They push radio and wanted us to sell it almost exclusively, but it’s just a dying game. I was there for six months, made over 3000 phone calls, set over 25 first time meetings, pitched about the same and every single deal fell through, even with my manager on the phone. Some of the hardest sales I’ve ever done. I just didn’t see an upside.
