Pros

Good money, love the people you get to meet, not having a boss breathing down your neck you get to be out and do your job.

Cons

Communication between office and tech is horrible, lots of driving I myself drive close to 200 to 300 miles daily, long hours so if u have a family be prepared a very demanding job.

Pros

A lot of work to keep you busy, pay based on how much you're willing to work. A lot of time on your own, but easy to contact others for help.

Cons

Depending on the route you have there will be a lot of non paying work to do, that is if you're wanting to truely take care of your customers.

Pros

Hands off approach but just know the sky is the limit and it's up to you to make it happen. Training is a forever thing and always available so you can never possibly get bored.

Cons

Sales people should have limited access to computers to pull history on current customers for prospecting reasons.
