Pros

Autonomy over your day to day schedule, ability to run territory as it is your own small business, totally owning customer relationships.

Cons

Heavily relies on national corporate contracts, sign up for a sales job but end up doing service work day in and day out, on call for service 24/7.

Pros

Decent pay. Generous time off compared to other companies.

Cons

Facility is disgusting. Huge gap between management and production employees. Very poor work environment. Management actively claims safety is our number one priority but it clearly is not.

Pros

There are several forums, employee clubs.

Cons

Company politics. Missing important decisions and decision makers. Diversity is rather advertised but not lived.
