Pros

free ice cream, looks good on a resume, off every sunday, get to work independently get off early on saturdays

Cons

pay starts off decent but never really increases over the years, when you get a promotion you make less money and still pretty much do the same work. a driver may make $45-$47k and a supervisor will make $42k. Get a promotion after supervisor and you make even less than that. Management is not good at all, too much favoritism, no respect for family life unless you are the bosses pet. The first inclination they get that you want to improve your life (go to school, start a part time business) and it doesn't include Blue Bell they begin to treat you differently. ridicule you and scrutinize you excessively. Also management is very unfair, rules don't apply to everyone there. Only the ones that they want to enforce them on. It was a great place to work 5 years ago but if you want to advance and grow this isn't the place for you. benefits are horrible too, Blue Bell runs their own health insurance and they will refuse to pay anything they can, for a spouse it costs $290/ month for the premium.

Pros

- Lucrative if you put in enough effort - Gain experience in sales, merchandising, DSD, earn Class B CDL - Holiday bonus - Job stability in a fragile market, consistent paychecks

Cons

- Nepotism - HR not on-site, so things swept under the rug that should be addressed - Low barrier of entry = revolving door of reps/merchandisers - No upward movement unless someone retires or quits, or you relocate - Frustrating receiver/store issues - Lack of communication and support from Territory Managers, Route Supervisors swamped with work and not able to support due to heavy workload
