      Pros

      Work Life balance. many things and activities to do. gym on premises. summer and holiday hours. work from home opportunities, unlimited sick time, 8k tuition reimbursement per year.

      Cons

      low pay, no overtime pay, no consideration for your weekends. no comp for working overtime at all. vacation time is short and takes many years to increase from 2 weeks. no bonuses. promotions give small increase in pay. health benefits are average and so are the options in the 401k. 8k tuition reimbursement isn't much.

      Pros

      Resume builder skills building & training learn variety of systems business ownership Strong diversity hiring (read cons)

      Cons

      Pay, compensation, benefits-very poor. VS other CPGs it is subpar and poor relative to other sectors. Hours, finance 70hrs wk. No vacations. After 5 yrs you will get 3 weeks off. Poor pension mgt, do you really believe Pep has protected its obligation if it is acquired, read the 10K-vague-positioning? Advancement &Recognition for successes. No sense of team, individual. Absolutely No camaraderie. Its like law school, employee vs employee.

      Pros

      A lot of autonomy to do your job. The pay is really good for this type of work especially for people without a college degree. Benefits are great, cost is acceptable. (Let's face it, nobody ever wants to pay their portion of benefits) Some really good people to work with. DSL's make a really good effort to reward their RSR's in small ways. I believe that most times sales goals are attainable EVEN in this economy. If projections are not being met consistently there is an opportunity for a business review. However, most sales are not being met because of missed opportunities in selling or ordering by the RSR.

      Cons

      The hours can be difficult - starting between 2am and 4am can make it difficult to connect with family and friends as you are always tired or trying to get to sleep early so you can wake up early. Vacation MUST be taken in week long increments (Sunday thru Saturday) and is bidded on in November/December of the previous year. You only get single days off for illness or bereavement unless you swap days with someone on your team. Some people who are not the most effective in their job are allowed to languish on in the company for decades. Communication at times can be missing. However, I have never gotten in trouble for something I was not aware of.
