Pros

I work on your own and decide what would be the best products to order for the stores that I work. I am able to work around appointments and life and pick and choose the stores on a schedule that works for my life.

Cons

I am always on the road with 9 stores to service. Don't know if it was just my supervisor, but even though I followed the rules by the book, but everything I did or didn't do she blamed me for. She never ever praised me for all the right work I did and even accused me of work that she did before I took over the stores from her. I am sure that there is a big turnover of employees for this company.

Pros

Somewhat flexible schedule depending on your route.

Cons

1. No one answers emails or returns phone calls - not your manager, not your manager's manager, not even their manager, and Human Resources doesn't either when you look to them for help. No one. 2. No raises - they are all about training thinking this is why there is a turnover. The reality is the wages are the lowest in the industry for merchandisers but the demands are high. 3. They say you are getting a raise but months go by and you never see it. If you are lucky enough to get a raise and they tell you it's retroactive to a date you don't see the retroactive pay as they promised. 4. New hires are brought in at a higher rate of pay than existing, long time, hard working employees
