Definitely an Eye Opener

Territory sales manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The chance to earn slightly more money that you could While being on unemployment.

Cons

The worst health insurance you can possibly be given by any company. Insulting pay. Unbelievable commission plan. The worst "sales training" you could possible receive in the sales industry.

Avoid Like The Plague

Asm (area sales manager)

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Regrettably, very few. A relaxed work environment (when not being micro-managed) is one mild positive. "Free company uniform".

Cons

Almost no quality/in-depth training. You are expected to travel to LA (their Head office) over several weekends, for a training course. You are EXPECTED to do this totally unpaid and without any time off in return. This is utterly unheard of. Everything about Battery Systems is just atrocious. The middle management is totally inept and under qualified. The HR crew (apart from one or two) are cringe worthy.
