Sales Development Representative
Pros: You make great money. Base pay was $50,000, plus up to $25,000 in commission. Plus, there is a strong sales training program that lasts 5 weeks. Also, you are surrounded by some bright people in their early twenties, so the connections could be useful down the road.
Cons: You are a cog. Management referred to us as "cogs in the wheel of a giant corporation," and it's true. Also, you will be working at a call center & and spending the majority of your day cold-calling, in hopes that some poor soul will respond to your 500th voicemail. It is depressing, because in the end, most of your job does nothing to contribute to the improvement of society.
