Pros

The only pro is the training they provide

Cons

Toxic environment Unfriendly culture Unsupportive Heavily KPI driven (it's a sales job which obviously will be KPI driven, but doesn't need to be so toxic and competitive) Poor management Mentally draining Salary is quite poor too considering their expectations Also favouritism is common amongst management
