Pros

Flexibility to work the hours I want to for the most part. Good benefits for the family. Friendly co-workers and good coffee during meetings.

Cons

Really early starts sometimes at 5am. Responding to jobsite emergencies frequently. Way too much paperwork and micromanagement. No straight answers from management when things go wrong. Wearing and driving red. No opportunity for top performers to make uncapped income. Limited career mobility unless you want to move to BFE.

Pros

You are your own boss and run your own territory as you see fit. Great products and highly regarded name in the industry.

Cons

Upper-level management is instituting more and more KPIs. This would be fine if Salesforce was more automated for the company, but there is a heavy manual component to input all of your conversations, opportunities, and leads. As an Account Manager you are expected to wear too many hats and it takes a long time to get ramped up to be effective in the job. You are expected to be a subject matter expert on many different product lines, handle logistics, credit issues, stock shortages, and be able to communicate effectively on jobsites all the way up to the C-suite level.
