Pros

if you like drug/drink culture this is the place for you. Viagra/underwear found in toilets.

Cons

If they can replace you with AI they will, You are a number in a system and will be made to feel like one. This company is very much so hire and fire. You will be expected to cold call at least 150 people a day even if you are hitting target without doing so.
