Pros

not many to list here

Cons

no support from management, antiquated everything including reporting tools and systems, churn for drivers who basically account for your sales is unreal. You're basically f'd if you work here.

Pros

Some opportunity for advancement, decent pay and laid back culture (family atmosphere).

Cons

Old school in terms of the sales and service processes and greatly needs an overhaul. Managers lack training,keen business acumen and education. The company may need to consider bringing in more M.B.A grads and experienced M. B. A managers who can be a catalyst for growth and overall company (or branch) growth. Additionally, a move toward providing current century sales and methodologies would help improve sales and reduce turnover.
