Pros

I enjoyed my team a lot. That's about it

Cons

What can i say that hasn't already been stated here in the other reivews? Read them, unfortunately, they're all true. I've met some great people here, guess how many of them are still at TPT, none. That should be enough for you. If not, know that you will be treated like an idiot most of the time, talked down to by sales, yelled at by sales. You're also told to be positive, no matter what. If you're a good performer, you'll get pulled into meeting rooms and repremanded if you complain about anything (like working until 10PM every night, not getting approved for reimbursements, being uncomfortably hot b/c they turn off the A/C in the summer or the sheer number of cockroaches crawling around the office).

Pros

You learn a lot to take elsewhere and have some other company benefit from it.

Cons

* hardcore sales - no time to build actual relationships with clients due to unrealistic goals * a lot of overtime * not just stressful (hey, which job isn't) but actually disstressing a lot of the time * cultural differences are not taken into account * elbow mentality * unfair commission payments once you resign * you have to be available pretty much 24/7 if you want to have your clients (and therefore your commission) properly covered and you also have to travel quite a bit yet no laptops or smartphones are provided - which should be standard these days * sustainability is not something that matters to management * if you read headlines like “The most psychologically abusive institution I've ever been part of” - believe it! it's true

Pros

Great team. Great training provided. You relly learn the ropes.

Cons

Crazy work hours and an ethic of "do it or lose your job" Immense pressure from day one Low salary and rarely increases. Oppressive environment No scope to move up ladder unless someone quits. Despite empty promises they make. So easy to get in to. Impossible to get out.
