Pros

sometimes you can get your route down to 4 days-- but every time you get faster with your route they add on more stores trying to keep your route at 46 hrs per week. ..forget having a real life if you accept this job.

Cons

4 NIGHTS A WEEK STAYING AT HOTELS, SOME ROUTES MAY BE 3 NIGHTS A WEEK. Give up your social life, pay is only $14.45 per hour then possible , as much as 6 hours a week overtime...incentives at the end of the year up to $5k...mornings begin really early by 5 am or 6 am.

Pros

The first 4 years were fun with area to grow and make money based on your efforts. Base plus commission was great. I was rewarded well under the Mountain View Marketing company / Pugs later renamed.

Cons

Merge with Solaray changed the family feel to a corporate feel where we soon were more like a number and less like a member of a big family working together. The company has very high turn over in the route service position. More and more was expected of us and we had less control over our day to day service. 3 years after coming together with Solaray and the Aurora group, I finally had enough. Less pay, more expectations, and a hyper focus on audits was enough for a sales minded person to handle.

Pros

Decent benefits, but a bit pricey if you need to add your family

Cons

When I was hired, my out of town travel was supposed to be 40%. It turned into 100%. We were required to stay in gross hotels, were MICRO-MANAGED beyond belief! Were not given any incentives. If we wanted to make a decent check, we had to work overtime. Always complaining and adding extra duties to our jobs. They were constantly changing procedures. The office staff are idiots and told us how to do our jobs (i.e. how long we were supposed to spend at each stop), which were almost impossible to do. The route schedulers should come work a day with us to see how much time is actually spent because of things beyond our control.
