Avantages
Good base pay and benefits. Some of the people are really nice and really care about the company. Company events are ok as long as you know your place. Good hours in a nice facility in a central location.
Inconvénients
Micromanaged by a group of mean, narrow minded elitists. Every process in the building needs to be re-invented or re-thought. It was virtually impossible to sell anything, and customer service is second to the processes that aren't working. Unsupported, unsolicited cold calling is a dead art. If you do find a prospect, It takes too long to get answers, quotes, service or really anything needed to succeed. There was no collateral to send or leave behind, no organized campaigning, and do not count on your manager to have the information you need. And, when you fail to succeed in this arcane environment, you will be forced to give up or sign a document that will inevitably be held against you when you file for unemployment.
