Pros

great benefits - great pay my department has a great work life balance if you do happen to get laid off, you will receive a nice package company is highly respected in the area

Cons

not progressive lots and lots of politics - if you have an inside connection, you are good most people have been with the company over 20 years and have no desire to move on - therefore many higher positions are filled - there is major organizational gridlock for higher levels

Pros

Can't beat the salary and benefits. Much high that other CPG sales positions. Lots of vacation time and paid holidays. Company car, laptop, credit card, etc. Lots of freedom. Work from home and on somewhat of your own schedule.

Cons

No work life balance! Have to work at least 50-60 hours per week to just get the job done. Sales force is now selling for three companies and one person is asked to do the job of what three people used to do. Poor and untimely communication from headquarters. This is not really a sales job! More of a glorrified merchandising position. Often working in gas stations with uneducated and hard to deal with customers. Unrealistic expectations and deadlines.
