Pros
Very autonomous. Flexible schedule. Easy going work environment.
Cons
First off, there is a serious lack of communication. You are left alone to figure out issues and problems because the people above you are clueless to what is going on in stores. This is due to the fact that you are servicing big box stores and their environment is independent building supply companies. Maybe a sales/merchandiser role for all big box stores would help, where sole responsibility is on that person. The company seems to relish in fixing broken equipment instead of buying new equipment. They languish in old plants instead of building modern facilities, where all production of all products can take place. This would save tranportation cost. There is no promotions. If you want to move up, via another position, you have apply like like non- employees. Any assessment, for a position, a skills test is done. They don't just promote.
