Pros

Decent insurance benefits and 401K nothing else is really a pro to working here.

Cons

Do yourself a favor and keep looking. Everyone here is always on edge, very high stress level and unnecessarily long working hours. You feel that you can't leave even though your work is done because everyone else in the department is still there. Very tense work environment where no one talks to each other and everyone is afraid to ask the manager a question for fear he might snap at you. Company has no respect for employees time outside of work and expects you to work on Saturdays to "show face and let everyone know you're serious about moving up in the company". Very traditional, conservative work environment dominated by men. No work life balance. If you are a woman be prepared to be talked down to and treated like you are not as intelligent as your male colleagues.

Pros

I wish I could give you a pro RUN away if you can

Cons

Where do I start…. Micromanagement to the max: Dissecting your mileage to your sales visits even though the mileage app sucked and did not work half the time. If you drive their car you can’t even drink water as the camera will alert corporate and you get a nasty email. False promises: only be overnight 1-2 nights a week which was not true Zero training on what’s important Let people sell instead of burying them in worthless tasks Had me train for 8 weeks away from home like I was in the military and I stared at a wall in an office. My wife had a medical scare early on and I mentioned that I would like to be with her with the diagnosis and they still made me travel 8 hours from home. Pretty sure they were forcing me out as I talked to other sales reps and they weren’t under the pressure that I was. It’s not really a real sales job there is no selling your basically and order taker and spend your time trying to figure out the mess of ordering.
