Pros

Decent benefits Company vehicle, cellphone, laptop Good opportunity to learn about the industry Decent 401k options Good short-term job for college grad

Cons

Good ol' boys upper management Everyone hates their job and loves making each other more miserable Company is extremely top heavy- all of the work and pressure is applied to lower tier or newer employees who make the least $ There is no advancement opportunities Iron clad non compete agreements - if you are stuck in a bad territory or have any issues with management you have no chance to just leave and get a job elsewhere.

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.
