Pros

Good people, family orientated group. They really encourage team building, especially within management. There are always pot lucks going on in the breakrooms.

Cons

Thr pay isnt that great and they expect their supervisors to do more even when they dont have the bandwidth to do so.

Pros

Excellent work culture. Leadership works, actively to support the field and reduce any barriers that would contribute to failure. Open to new ideas, flexible, work hours, fully supportive, and fun environment that any sales representative with thrive in. Lots of opportunities for advancement.

Cons

As any good sales rep nose, incentives can be a double ledge sword. There is no ceiling on earnings, which can harm work life balance. But expectations are fair considering compensation. Get ready to work hard.
