Pros

Compensation in this position is good. Benefits (health, dental, and vision) are nice as well. Paid vacation time is a good amount. Bonuses are usually pretty good too.

Cons

Work will just be piled onto you nonstop and you cannot expect to get any relief there. You will be expected to do the work of multiple people. Management does not like to consider the opinions of the employees, it's my way or the highway in that regard. Accountability is lacking in some areas.

Pros

good health plan and vacation time

Cons

inexperience regional managers with no sales experience or distrbution knowledge. was a time when you attained regional spots through putting in your time as a full commissioned sales person, that person always make the best managers as they understand the business. BSE will hire anyone for these positions now and it shows in thier turnover rate. Now they are using the Wesco trick of buying new companies to make thier bottom line look better than what it actually is
