Pros

Strong Commission Structure (when you can actually finalize your referrals) Helping patients live healthier lives Fantastic training program facilitated by 3rd party company

Cons

Awful mileage reimbursement, excruciatingly slow expense reimbursement, unrealistic and unfair expectations with regards to operational performance (SLRs are expected to meet a goal for sales calls but are also expected to basically run the center and hold everyone else's hand), upper management is trigger-happy when letting people go (I saw them fire all our service reps without warning or just cause), commissions are nearly impossible to get at times because you must rely on a CSR making $9/hour to actually care enough to get the paperwork in properly and on time, salaried reps are made to work extended hours (long nights, weekends, early mornings) FOR FREE when hourly employees are paid overtime, terrible base salary.

Pros

Flexible, not in an office primarily, quality patient contact and education

Cons

Low reimbursement, low staff, supposedly a mon-fri 8-5 job I am the only rt, and am on call 24/7. On avg work 7am-7-8pm with not so much as a full lunch break. I have put 9000 miles on my car in my two months of employment and I bought a full tank of gas Tuesday morning at 8am and before I could even finish seeing my last patient the next day (Wednesday), I already had to buy another full tank of gas. The measly $565 we get reimbursed per month is the max, and it doesn't even cover my gas. I drove 3500 miles in January, but the most they will pay you is 2000. Not worth the time and aggravation....expect zero family life. My car broke down and had to be towed out of state, but they didn't offer to get me a rental but I was still expected to see patients. Oh and everything is STAT. If you think working for a hospital is bad/exhausting, you have another thing coming

Pros

good training I enjoyed the variety of work small territory is easy to manage without any overnight travel

Cons

poor management constant shift of focus they hire / fire new rep every year and then wonder why the accounts dont trust them they underpay at every position which leads to an office of C- talent , which leads to constant service issues constant pressure on sales and management leads them to turn on each other and one usually gets the other fired salary is misleading because you have to pay for so many of your own expenses - gas - lunches for doctors - cell phones - hard to get paid back what you give out
