Pros

Great family like atmosphere with everyone striving for the same goals; competitve results-oriented culture with rewarding bonus compensation tied to strong performance; company values are in the right place; excellent benefit package; extensive Corporate/upper management training and assistance readily available; offers the best products in the industry; very innovative and always searching for ways to improve; stresses promoting from within; if you are internally motivated and work hard producing results, you will be rewarded.

Cons

Long hours and traveling makes work-life balance difficult; service locations are staffed thin often leaving themselves short-handed in case of turnover/sickness; many of the jobs are difficult/frustrating at times; vacation policy could be updated

Pros

Great benefits, good salaries, great company atmosphere, weekends off and paid vacation time. Great support and positive mentors, with lots of upward mobility for dedicated employees.

Cons

Need to master time management, can be hectic, unique company vocabulary and procedures can mean a lot of learning for beginners.

Pros

Decent Salary (45k) for outside sales. Good Culture, holidays off, decent benefits, etc

Cons

I was in a territory about a fifth of the size of other territories in larger cities, but I had the same goals, quotas, etc. I was there for nearly four years and it was really rough at the end. Compared to other sales jobs, it doesnt pay well. Managers don't make close to 100k unless they are exceptional. Issues always arise too due to nature of laundering clothes, even though they act like they have much better service and processes than competition. They really don't .
