Pros
Lending my perspective, TQL is a great spot to be, especially in Denver, where I've worked for 3 years as an account executive in this fast paced and dynamic industry of logistics. Initially, as a college business grad, I knew I wanted to work in sales, and stumbled across TQL in my job pursuit hoping to put my education and real world know-how to the test, thinking primarily that the position would be a good fit for me and also because the job description had tremendous upside potential to make money. What I like the most about the job is the day to day challenge and reward of managing large companies intricate supply chain's by supplying them with trucks to move their products. Getting to the fun part of the job took me about a year from when I started, but the hard work is well worth it.
Cons
This job requires a lot of time and phone calls to get your foot in the door with some companies when building your book of business, which can be a turn off for newer employees because you'll hear "No" a lot when prospecting. The overall marketplace for what you do at TQL is highly competitive and saturated with other companies that offer similar services to prospective clients, so its all about knowing where to look for opportunity, when to look, and what to offer when that time is optimal for closing clients. Most people fail at understanding the underlying foundations of this idea, which is supply and demand.
