Pros

*Average pay for Entry Level *Great place to start a career *Good benefits (HC, Trips, Car Allowance, Gas Card...Standard to above standard these days for entry level sales reps) *Good career mobility if there are open positions *Great training to start

Cons

*Advanced sales training lacking *Big brother mentality to activity tracking * Compensation plan is constantly changing. 5 times in 3 years. Has gotten much worse recently no longer a 6 figure sales job...80k if your in the top 10%. Beware they will tell you different. *You have to force the career advancement question even when you are a year after year top performer. *You must have high energy, focus, and drive to win in this highly competitive market. Otherwise don't even apply. Be able to deal with people wanting to buy from you now but not being able to due to 3-5 year contracts, this will happen multiple times weekly.

Pros

Travel opportunities. Former corporate management was extremely supportive and good to work with. Free food. Free drama.

Cons

Work life balance. Don’t be a mother to young children if you want to work here. Verbal communication vs. what you get in an email will be contradictory….the gaslighting was unbelievable. Digital metric systems put in place by new corporate management has taken all the creativity and actual management out of the job. Will be mad at you if you don’t make the numbers they want to see, but will provide zero guidance on how best to do so. Hours were extremely long in order to complete all job responsibilities. New upper management is inflexible to specific account needs. Each account is different. HR does not help you - they protect the company. If you need to terminate an employee - they make it impossible.
