Fantastic portfolio, systems need work - Sales Representative Empire Distributors Employee Review

Sales representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Fantastic portfolio with almost 4000 items in the book which makes it a little difficult sometimes to keep up with things but gives you plenty of selection to offer you guys including some very big heavy hitter labels. 100% commission but depending on the route can be really lucrative. Incentives are great. Can make an extra $5k-$15k on those alone depending on how hard you push.

Cons

Sometimes the sales team can feel a little unheard and a lot of systems that are put in place are meant to help out other departments but tend to put a little strain on the sales team. Mileage Reimbursement is terrible.

Empire Distributors Response

We appreciate your feedback. As a company we are doing round table discussions in a town hall format monthly so employees can bring forth concerns and suggestions for improvements. We want all of our employees to know that they have a voice and we hear them.
