Pros

Its a very fun work environment. You meet a lot of people. You get a 2 hour lunch as a sales person.

Cons

No career advancement unless you are best friends with someone in upper management. Expected to sell on the clock, which is only about a quarter of what you have to do during the work day. Everything else (which is several, time consuming things) youre expected to "find a way" to get it done. Meaning off the clock. Youre expected to help do everyone else's job because "We're a team and its for the club" be it housekeeping or janitrial or front desk.... Payout is ridiculous, both base and commission Corporate office has been known to make the sales team push a promotion and then once its over change the payout base to next to nothing. Good for the company bad for the person trying to make a living.
