Pros

Pay is okay but not if you add up all the hours you work, reimbursed for mileage on personal car

Cons

Work into the evening every night just to keep up with admin work and meet field activity requirements during the day. Supposed to defend 30% price increases. Unrealistic expectations all around. The company didn’t use to be this hard to work for but the last couple of years have gotten rough.

Pros

We used to have to come in every morning and stay in the office for at least an hour, then go out into the field, come back at least an hour before 5pm and stay in the office. They changed it so we only have to come in in the morning and it's so much nicer.

Cons

I really didn't get along with the sales manager. On my first day, the manager who hired me announced he was leaving. About two weeks into my employment, the new sales manager wanted to make crazy changes to show his authority. It went downhill from there. He made major cutbacks and the things he kept where supposed to be thought of as gifts, such as bottled water.
