Pros

Production and commission percentage are nice once you make your required $12,500-$12,750 a month for your route.

Cons

I personally had no such training being a commercial tech. I took over one of the REGIONS biggest accounts at the time and had only a couple weeks worth of shadowing for that account alone. And I had to complete 100 other accounts throughout the month. (Which I never once got the chance to visit while “training”).

Pros

Take home vehicle. Your somewhat independent.

Cons

Va beach location is the worst!! In the summer be prepared to work long hours. Management does not know how to talk to people. They get mad when you take vacation. I heard know one is there when I started so they can’t keep anyone. Please stay away! I heard people are stroking out!
