Pros

Compensations and benefits were good. Met some other good sales associates on the job.

Cons

Lots and lots of micromanagement! There are more graphs and charts to tell you how to do your job then the stock market. If you come to the table with a book of business worth 2-3 million dollars. United will have you input every contact you know. They will also need you to record every site and office visit with names, dates etc., into their computer software program Salesforce. You`re confined to a small territory and become a puppet for the big corporate machine. Now when you leave be prepared to get a rash of lawyer letters threatening to sue you if you join the competition. The American way, sue everything.

Pros

Excellent benefits and a plethora of tools ans support. Company truck for sales reps at $75 per pay period. It’s a very well known company so you get a lot of business from national accounts. If you can get your foot in the door, it’s an experience that’s worth it. No regrets.

Cons

Due to their size and like so many publicly traded companies, there is a huge disconnect on the expectations. My manager did his best but you could tell his bosses were asking for unachievable results. My sales manager was clueless at her role and no sales experience to lead a team. Things she would ask from us were counter productive. Not anything I couldn’t deal with.
