Pros

Promotions were based on results and capacity to do more within the organization. Base compensation was above average for the sales volume.

Cons

Work life balance does not exist. Frequently expected to work 6-days in the filed, with Sunday as a planning day. Too many conference calls that would last for more than 1-hour. Not enough time spent with immediate supervisor.

Pros

It’s a pretty easy job, very fun people to work with. Hours as a driver are pretty consistent.

Cons

The pay isn’t great. It would be nice if the drivers were making at least $17 or $18 an hour. Also benefits don’t extend to health insurance only dental and vision if you are only considered part-time. Anybody that isn’t the GM, CPP, and RPP are considered part-time, regardless of the hours you get.
