Great People, Great Benefits, Great Company!

Senior account manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits, great salary. We are truly a leader in communications. We sell a variety of quality products, have talented, intelligent technicians & engineers and professional sales people. Our customer stay because of our expertise and excellent service. Our employees stay because its a great place to work! I'm approached by headhunters a few times per month, but I'm not interested. I'm at the right company and won't be going anywhere else. Most of our employees have been with the company 20+ years. Most of our competitors are going out of business and after 35 years we remain profitable.

Cons

Too many different entities within the company. Sometimes makes it difficult to sell in different territories.
