Pros

health benefits, 401K, fast paced industry with an endless opportunity to learn new things. Customer interaction daily with on-going relationship building. Ideal for a people-person.

Cons

Operational follow-through is a challenge. Post merger communications and sense of stability lacking. No decision making abilities at divisional levels.

Pros

I have a good amount of freedom as I am out on the road a lot visiting current customers. Also, it is nice to work for someone who does not micro-manage.

Cons

Intra-office politics leave a lot to be desired, as one department feels pitted against another due to a difference in managing styles. Also, the benefits are not that great, they are expensive for both prescriptions and doctors' visits.
