Pros

Benefits are decent, no match on 401k, insurance options and coverage are great. Coworkers!

Cons

There are way too many too list off. Management; nepotism, favoritism, all the isms! They do not provide any coaching or support to their employees. You will learn everything from the people around you and your supervisor will sit there with headphones in acting busy. They reward mediocrity and over work people who actually put their best foot forward. I left for many reasons but the straw that broke the camels back was repeated communications with supervisors and management that went completely ignored. If you are going in to a commissioned position to hope for comission... the company had gotten so greedy that they continue to make profit but have raised the sales goals to an unrealistic number that you will not have the ability to attain, but it will still be your fault that the field rep didn't give you enough patients to achieve the number. I worked there for 2.5 years and they claim to want to make things better but every change they make is poorly planned and even more poorly implemented.

Pros

I made pretty good money in my position (when it was possible to make goal). To be honest, that was the single reason I stayed there. Now, it's impossible to make your numbers unless you are one of managements favorites.

Cons

Way too many to list. The Customer service department is SO prejudice. You'll see it if you ever go for the job (especially if you are a minority and hired as higher than a CSR). No joke, the upper management is blatantly nepotistic and ONLY promote who they like (more points if you AREN'T a minority) I've seen people of color leave back to back. Super discouraging if you actually want to move up. Supervisors are as smart as a 5th grader.
