Pros

Great customers, heritage, and mission.

Cons

Corporate management VERY Corrupt. This business does not seek out talent, they prefer to use who they know personally, than hire from outside "the family". Outsiders are targeted.

Good Salary + Poor Commission

Business Outlook

Pros

Salary is 85% of total compensation

Cons

Commission potential is very limited, 15% of total compensation with some opportunity to earn over and above. However the goals are rarely realistic and the company will change the “rules” as needed.
