Pros

- i can organize my daily work by my own also the coverage and visits at customers can be organized by my own - of course i get a company car, mobile phone, computer etc. (these are normal things which will also provided by other companies if you are enploeed there, so nothing special to announce)

Cons

- Management just looks on revenue - Wrong deccisions are made in developing market strategies - Customers needs and recommendations are not recognized in the right way - Some Managers have to bee educated more in realizing the way how the customer is thinking and which reaction of the customer is meaning what (interaction of saying and meaning) - Development of new products is made by wrong peoples under wrong conclusions, mostly a development does not match the requirements of the customer needs. Most important goal is to reduce cost by growing the revenue but not to grow the customers satisfaction - too much "very important people" in leading positions, some of them are just important in their own eyes - product improvement is done to late and not related to customers requirement - overall you must get the impression that only the shareholders interests are in focus but not the customer need
