Pros

There is a lot of autonomy within your role and great training from managers. Opportunities for advancement are open to all.

Cons

Sales in consumer goods industries at the lower levels can at times be frustrating as you have to deal with many individuals who often may not seem to be very business savy.

Pros

Pay is okay. Starting salary is on the upper end for sales people coming out of college. Great benefits for health.

Cons

Must relocate for promotions even if there is an opening in your own city. Advancement process is pretty much limited to those who go to certain schools. This is a tobacco company, not a lot of upside for those coming out of school. Get some experience and move on. Senior management thinks everything has to be done today. Too many initiatives at the same time so none of them are done right. They have these company values that they do not follow, but expect everyone else to do. It is a good old boy club at the top.
