Pros

Benefits, descent sales training, cool co workers, and selling technology. And most important, getting a paycheck to pay for your gas for your car.

Cons

LONG HOURS! 12 hours a day on average. Get in to the office around 7:30, then do "Rookie Role Play" training for a half hour and then go into the field. After driving around for another 60 miles to my territory, Id have to drive all the way back to the office to go over my day. I put on about 400 miles a week in driving and you dont get gas mileage reimbursement per mile. Huge turnover rate,3 to 4 few quit a week. It was implied you had to go to "optional" work events or else you would be blackballed for not being a "team player". Never got time off, too exhausted to go out on the weekends because of work during the week, the product we sell sucks, and get ready to be yelled at by everybody you speak to because they have already been visited by our reps countless times and have said "no" every single time.

Pros

It wouldn't allow me to put my actual last year (2012) but during my 2 year employment, I made great money. I made president's club both years and regular saw 7K checks with some topping 10K. I used to win nice watches, luxury sunglasses, skydiving trips, box seats at Lakers games, box seating at really cool concerts, etc.

Cons

LONG hours...I would arrive at 7am for the morning meeting. we would then have team meeting at 8am and we would hit the road at 9am. We wouldn't get back until 5:30-6:00pm BUT nobody complained because we were paid for it. Nobody cared what gas prices were because we were more than compensated (I forgot to mention Dom, the big boss, would but gas cards and hand those out just because you had a nice suit on. Dude was such a good leader....eveyone wanted to do good for Dom. Why? I/ couldn't explain it...ther than he knew how to lead and that involves getting people to buy into your plan. We did. And Dom had that division leading the company each and every month. Two of the best years of my career and it happened in the very beginning. I will always miss my time here. what a con. lol. it was a great job
