Pros
Reasonably good salary, decent benefits, and our Center staff is great.
Cons
Where to begin? They give you completely unreasonable sales goals with no consideration given for regional competition. You never hear any positive feedback or get a pat on the back, but you constantly hear how you're not measuring up to their expectations. There is a constant barrage of emails from area management reminding you that you're not meeting your goals. Sales focus is constantly changing... one week it's unit dose, then enteral, then ventilators, then CPAP, etc. Reimbursements are slow. Sales reps and center managers are expected to pay for lunches and marketing out of pocket, and then we wait forever to get the reimbursement. I'm constantly stressed out about something, whether it's sales numbers or changing priorities, etc. Area management micromanages to the point that I can't even order a CPAP mask without area manager's approval, but when anything goes wrong, I'm responsible. I have all the responsibility but no real authority.
