Pros

It is really good base income. They provide a nice car and mobile allowence. Some of the managers are very nice!

Cons

They are liars and don't follow procedures. Customers were dissatisfied and the route drivers con people. Upper management is aweful. The factory workers are treated very poorly.

Pros

Great for new sales reps to learn how to sell business to business, good solid work for route drivers, good products, good benefits, good money if at quota

Cons

Toxic culture in many locations now (constant fear for job loss), little leadership across company, almost no diversity in managment, slow to implement anything new, does not value education If you are a sales rep it is more important that you do your job their way than reach goal any other way. It is restrictive for those reps who have talent and do not need to rely on antiquated sales tactics.

Pros

They give you a gas card. That's it.

Cons

Management overloads you with work while you're in training. I've been in sales for 10 years and I've never seen anything like this. The salary isn't high enough for the work required. Run Fast!!!
