Pros

They treat the top 1% well but still lie to top performers to be fair.

Cons

Everyone below the top 1% is treated by Directors in a toxic way, sexist and you are constantly gaslighted. When you need help, that help is always unavailable as the managers are always in meetings talking ill of the people below them. They promote the guys only, you have to be in the 'lads club'. It's always 'About them' never about what is best for you and the leader hates anyone else being in the spotlight. There is never any training, just very basic which would suit grads only opposed to experienced members of staff. Always reminded how much 'We took care of you'

You're either sales royalty or you're expendable and overlooked, bottom line.

Pros

If - and only if - you're a high-producing salesperson, and you drink the culture kool-aid, you'll be paid VERY well with multiple bonuses, perks, etc.

Cons

There is an LARGE divide between how the salespeople are treated/compensated vs. the administrative staff, who are full time professionals, some of whom have many years of tenure. Even so, these admins are NOT compensated near as well as they should be, and nowhere near the sales staff who get exorbitant bonuses and lavish celebrations. Administrative staff are still paid HOURLY, even after 10, 15+ years of service, yet no salary options. WHY?? Additionally, NO production bonuses for admin staff outside of the occasional gift card or possible company-wide stipend to correct for inflation, etc. They've done a couple, and they're appreciated and needed, but... there's still a glaring difference and don't think the admin staff don't see it. They do, and they feel it, and it damages morale. If there wasn't such a vast divide between how these roles are viewed, valued, and treated by upper management, this would be a MUCH better company.

Pros

you can make a good living and work with some (just some) great people. They have good training.

Cons

Constant change, favoritism, terrible comp plan compared to others in the industry. A deeply disfunctional culture from the top down.
