Pros

Great opportunities to make an impact right away. A lot of very intelligent people here to learn from. Great benefits and compensation. A lot of training opportunities. Company allows individuals to shift between different functions. Lots of opportunities to interact with senior leadership

Cons

Workload can be a bit overwhelming. A lot of places to work autonomously, but some areas appear to be undermanned. Things can get a bit political when working across functions.

Pros

Salary is very generous for it to be a “sales” position. You get a company car that you can use any time for any purpose. Completely eliminates the need for a personal car payment. You’re left alone to do your job as long as you’re doing your job correctly. Support and recognition from leadership has been top of the line. This isn’t your typical sales position where you must meet objectives or else you’re ran out of the company. The brand sells itself and if you can’t sell the product Altria carries, this probably isn’t the job for you anyway.

Cons

The only con so to speak would be the workload that we have but if you’ve ever worked for a large corporation, you know objectives change almost daily. Yes, it can feel overwhelming at times but coming from a cut throat sales environment, I’ll take this “pressure” all day every day.
