Pros

Depending on your team, you can have very nice laid back managers or you could have micromanagers. My team is laid back but still push for stats to be hit monthly

Cons

Not a lot of room to grow, eyes always watching you and your activity. Endless calls

Pros

Great work life balance except for busy season which is expected in the industry. If you get onto a good team and do you job effectively (aka performing well) you have a lot of flexibility and trust within management and get to choose and be part of different campaigns that are being run

Cons

Salary is a bit low especially first year but if you perform you can get huge raises. No commission which is tough when you see how much pipeline you are generating for your vendor

Pros

Working from the comfort of my home is great.

Cons

* Immature leadership and obvious favoritism by sr team lead * Strong performers are not always valued unless they personally “fit in” with management * Office politics often outweigh actual job performance and results * Some managers create a hostile work environment for employees who disagree with them or do not constantly cater to their ego * Accountability is inconsistent, which negatively impacts morale across teams * Compensation has shifted heavily toward tiered lead-generation metrics, while approval expectations continue to change without clear communication or meaningful coaching, making it increasingly difficult for employees to succeed fairly
