Business Outlook
Pros
As a merchandiser you get to work independently without dealing with supervisors on a daily basis. You get to move from store to store which makes the day go by fast.
Cons
Putting many miles on your vehicle and the rising cost of gasoline. I work in an area with little to no turnover so moving up within the company is difficult. You may get turned down for a job even with a degree, while in another territory someone who is braindead is working in a position you would like to have. Dealing with too much product and not enough backroom storage (account managers don't work the product and don't care what they send in b/c they get a bonus based on hitting numbers).
