Pros
Fair Pay Fair Benefits Well known brand in the industry Interesting industry where you'll meet nice people and learn a different way of living
Cons
Dated policy and procedures Dated tools and dated practices No accountability for management to maintain their end of the bargain Micro-management is definitely present - you're not truly free to run your territory as you see fit - it's really your bosses territory and he calls the shots. There's very little autonomy to make executive decisions which stymies your professional growth. You're not a Territory Manager, you're a Territory Associate. If you're new to the cabinet industry, don't look to management to fulfill their training/mentoring obligations. Company is in the stone age regarding modern CRM tools and practices. They're trying to catch up but even their latest introduction/transfer to a new tool is still a couple steps behind the market leading CRM tools available today. They use vague terminology and definitions for expectations - these loosely worded requirements can be a catch-22 if you're not careful to document everything according to Blum code If you're looking for a role where you can expand your sales background and professional growth through new experiences - this is not the role for you. If you're looking for a role where there will be career advancement opportunities - that is not commonplace here and this is very likely not the role for you.
