      Pros

      Field sales offers flexibility to work from home. If you can hit a lucky sales cycle or get handed good groups, you can make a decent check.

      Cons

      Poor management top down. The changes in leadership have not been positive and it is impacting morale, client relationships, and pay. Questionable hiring decisions at sales vp level (pretty weak field) has trickled to management level.

      Pros

      Generally the benefits are good, but are declining. The head of CoxEnterprises believes in employee empowerment and benefits. The values of CEI are wonderful and the reason I stay.

      Cons

      Current leadership over AutoTrader (CAI) prioritizes profits over all else so we have reorganizations every year or so making it an unstable environment. The company is now run by Finance and HR, so you can imagine the culture.
