Pros

I was extremely apprehensive at taking the position due to it's location, but I'm so glad I took the chance. Everyone here is extremely helpful, upbeat, supportive, and everyone I speak to loves it. They reward hard work...very well. While it's a competitive environment, it's also very much a team environment. If you've got good work ethic, if you're a hunter, if you're a closer....I highly recommend you consider the position

Cons

It's not in midtown next to Grand Central like my last job. But a very easy subway ride.
