Pros
-There is a good amount of flexibility as long as you have good time-management. Keep on mind you are required to stay in constant communication with accounts and prospecting. - There is a lot of independence - You are responsible for what you do every day in order to grow your market. - My team is always there for me, when I have questions or need help there are multiple people I can reach out for help. - Amazing training program - Leadership truly cares about employees having what they need in order to do the best they can. I feel cared for and that I am working for an employer who appreciates me and my hard work. - Great Health insurance - You will actually get to see the CEO of the company from time to time. He sends out e-mails regularly and gives quarterly presentations.
Cons
- This can be a lonely position , after all you are driving to see accounts every day and I do not really get to spend time with fellow coworkers since they are busy in their markets or other cities. - You will need to rely on your computer and phone skills to not only survive, but doing a great job. You will have people willing to help you but you will not have an office where you can go to hang out with your coworkers and supervisors. - Although I believe every path is different and people who work for the company have different backgrouends, I believe opportunities for advancement are limites when it comes to promotions, you really only have a few options for advancement. Either, you can become a Director of Sales , Director of National Accounts, and/or possibly a trainer. - The company will take care of you but they also expect you to work very hard. (This is not necessarily a CON, but I would like you to have realistic expectations since you will not be given an easy job per se)
