Pros

Some job freedom in that you get to do what you want.

Cons

The company throws you in and expects you to know every answer to possibe situation that arises when it comes to you and your customers operations. Be aware that you will be expected to babysit all of your customers needs by doing everything from fixing invoice problems, wiring dish machines, setting up returns, delivering product to them when they forgot to order products to get them through the weekend all while being expected to SELL, SELL, SELL! This job is posted as a sales job but you quickly find out that you are just a service man with a tie. Oh yeah you are expected to wear slacks and a tie all while crawling under dish machines, sitting in puddles of water and cutting copper tubing. You are also expected to meet ridiculous sales numbers and are threatened with your job and intimidated when you are not meeting those numbers. You will never feel more worthless and helpless than you do with this job. Most of us are smart guys/girls but are never given the opportunity to shine because most likely you will get little to zero training.

Pros

A job and make some money

Cons

Everything. You are on your own to sink or swim. If you have a family or a life outside of work you and kiss them goodbye because you will never see them again. You will drive 5 hour one way and work 9 hours in the hot sun with only a 30 minute lunch break and then drive 5 hours back home only to have to do it again the next day which is only a few more hours.
