Pros
- Great colleagues to work with (non-management) - Great customers/clients to build relationships - Interesting premise for publications, if a bit outdated - Decent compensation
Kontras
- Little to no training whatsoever - Unrealistic expectations of performance - Incredibly negative atmosphere fostered by management (especially in sales side) - Very poor understanding of how companies and jobs are compensated in America - Hostile, uncaring attitude of mid- to upper-management towards employees - Borderline harassment in some cases is rampant. One of the female employees I worked with was ridiculed in front of the entire office by a new addition to the management team from overseas, and it was unacceptable - Lack of understanding of how businesses buy advertising. Expectations are made to keep sales reps from earning as high as similar positions - Extreme level of micro-management on all projects
