Pros

If you like selling and calling on commercial accounts(Tires Plus, etc) this is a fun job and realitivly easy to hit company sales expectation. The company has all the reporting you need to stratigize a sales plan. The pay is above average for similiar positions in the industry and comes with car, phne, computer, and air card. You work from home when not riding with salesmen. There are also stock options for Commercial Sales Managers and above

Cons

You need thick skin and get used to no poistive feedback. The values are Inspire, Serve, and Grow, and there is not Inspire to the team. Upper mgt only wants to get ahead, and you are out on an island. Mess up and you are out. Watch your back as it will get stabbed.

Pros

The benefits are good and you will learn many things if you are not a vehicle expert.

Cons

Starting an hour is $7.50 and I haven't seen a raise for 3 years because they think I'm over paid even though I have been with the company for almost 6 years.
