Sales Career - Do not waste your time here they are wolf in sheeps skin
Pros
Good work life balance The location - a good selection of restaurants and easy to commute to. You can make some good friends Flexi hour start between 8 and 10 am Work here as stepping stone if you must but be adviced its like quicksand once your in you will get too comfortable to leave and you will never progress internally.
Cons
From day one you will be sold a dream that this company cares about you - but they don't all they care about is getting you for as cheap as possible and making sure to keep you at that low level for as long as possible. The company has the laziest management team you will come across who do nothing all day except take credit for your work and talk bad about you behind your back if your not performing. There is no real training to develop your career They use to be a good company that looked after their people but that is no more. If you work hard - good luck getting that recognised into a tangible promotion or pay rise you have a better chance of becoming the mayor of London - no joke. They will find any and every excuse to keep you humble and not show off your achievements just to oppress you and keep you at bay. This is from senior management level all the way down to sales managers. No motivation within the office - you can hear a bin drop that is how quiet it is, so if your ambitious sales person good luck getting any energy from this place. People who have been there for some time have favourites on accounts and territory and you will be left with the leftovers. Honestly, do not be fooled by this companies past performances and quality it has gone downhill and it doesn't look like it will get any better soon.
