Business Outlook

Pros

Alright Compensation Upward Mobility expense card/high car allowance.. (i guess)

Cons

While the compensation for an account manager is fair... l. As a union carrier our pricing is almost 20-30% higher then the competition with the same operational flaws. Instead of problems being addressed its common for higher ups to point fingers as a way to deflect blame. Problems are rarely solved and its the customer who suffer Management is extremely naive.... They seem to believe that entertainments yield business, not price and service Every single account manager that I am contact with are extremely unhappy and looking on a way out JUST DONT DO IT, THIS IS A PRODUCT THAT YOU WILL GROW TO HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN AND WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE MISERABLE
