Pros

Meritocratic culture - promotions available to everyone and are not limited to office size or when someone leaves Commission structure - motivates you to make more money each month and you are rewarded for your hard work Team work - everyone is working towards the same goal and supports each other the entire way Training programme - Module 1 & 2 are fantastic and the 1:1 training by managers is also really helpful

Cons

Offices - not all offices are 'uniform' and as 'on brand' as they could be Working hours - long working days

Pros

Great training, incentives and colleagues. I was given the tools to feel well equipped in order to be successful and there is always someone on hand to help out if there is something I am unsure of. Always something to work towards to get prizes, nights out and commission.

Cons

Sometimes the dress code is overly strict. For instance we HAVE to shave. I look better with some light stubble and it would be nice to be allowed to choose.
