Business Outlook

Pros

- Company Vehicle - Pays for gas - Incentivies on Production and Completion of stops

Cons

- Micromanaging Management - Completing your route is not enough - Enforcing policy when it fits their needs but ignoring it when it doesn't serve them - Bonuses go unpaid most the time - They say get to Level 3 which pays more but make it impossible to achieve.
