Pros

Large inventory to sale from and the company is well known in the automotive repair industry.

Cons

Management lack the proper training and lacks the desire to ensure that all the orders get delivered when they should be delivered. NO PAY RAISES. Management believes that ISC's should earn their raises by their commission. But due to orders not getting pulled and delivered as promised, it is hard to build your customer base.

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
