Pros

Pay is ok. That’s about it.

Cons

Your every move is tracked. The standards that you are held to by upper management is silly. Regardless of if your sales are there or not, your manager will constantly come down on you and your team for not hitting enough doors in the day, again, despite contacts or sales being at projection or higher. Good for if you have 0 sales experience, but climbing the ladder doesn’t seem to be very fun or rewarding.

Pros

- Very very easy to move up in the company. If you dedicate a couple years and show skill in sales you can move up to a sales manager position extremely fast. If you are willing to move the opportunity to move up is even significantly easier and faster. - Almost all of management started at the bottom and worked their way up, if possible they always hire from within. - Good money, get out what you put in. - Direct Management is great, local and even regional management is almost even fantastic, but any higher then that becomes out of touch and very frustrating to (albeit indirectly) work with.

Cons

- Inconsistent at times about expectations, at times asking for one thing then immediately needing the other. Can be frustrated to be pulled in so many directions, but not even remotely unmanageable. - Lot's of hours, especially in management. Prime time? (March-End of May) Say goodbye to your personal life! Mandatory 1/2 day Saturdays, definitely a grind but worth it. - Frustrating policies and illogical outlook on what success looks like.
