Pros

The benefits, pay, retirement plan and perks (company car, computer, phone, internet etc.) are second to none. If you want to be a territory level sales representative for the rest of your career this is a great place to work.

Cons

Even after earning multiple tier awards, consistent rankings in the top 20% nationally, regional development programs, training experience and data analyst roles no opportunities for promotion outside of the territory level were available. I was denied multiple opportunities for rotations outside of the territory with no explanation or face to face interaction. Specialty sales positions are filled behind closed doors with no interview process or transparency. My perception as a territory level sales representative was that I would never be able to move into another position no matter what my national ranking or performance reviews showed.

Pros

Can't emphasize enough how approachable, non-judgmental, and supportive the team is, both managers and colleagues. Everyone genuinely cares about your holistic professional development and growth.

Cons

This may seem unrealistic, but I genuinely did not have a single negative experience during my time here.
