Stewart Business Systems Response

The executive team thanks you for your kind words. You're right ... we all do care very much about our employees so it's good to get your recognition. Regarding your other feedback, Stewart bases starting salary on sales experience. The 35k you mention is for those new to sales. The stellar sales training that is provided will show you how to leverage your commission plan by focusing on all aspects of the business - not just sell copiers. Base salaries have been doubled or better in year 1 and we can put you in touch with those who have been there and done that so they can show you how. To make territories equitable, we use several data points, including current customer base, annual revenue associated with said customer, market opportunities and competitive and historical data to determine quota. I must differ with you on the 401k - a match of 75% on the first 6% is a great way to prepare for your retirement. I hope you're taking full advantage of that, as well as the ways to offset the high deductible health plan. We have incentives that add to your Health Savings Account or give a payroll credit. Let us know if you need info on that. Thanks for being part of Stewart's success.

Pros

I have had the pleasure of working at Stewart for the past 11 years. Stewart is a growing organization that has tremendous opportunity for growth in NJ and PA more importantly. Our 75 technicians, Dedicated Help Desk, Local Dispatch, and Local Billing are some of the things that make life easy here as a sales rep. If you work hard it will ABSOLUTELY PAY OFF! Aside from the great commission checks from working hard I was also just awarded a TRIP TO THE BAHAMAS for 5 Days for coming in 2nd place for a contest that Stewart was running. They give you plenty of great technology, Ipads, laptops, smartphones, and other tools to get the job done in a professional manner. Our unique footing in the market place also makes sales easier. We truly are the "Best of Both Worlds", Local Service with a National Presence, and we can honestly say that there is not another model like us in the NJ PA areas.

Cons

Any service company is going to have its room for improvement. Dealing with service is never easy especially in our industry. Stewart tries their hardest to make it easy though by offering a plethora of great bonuses and unique programs for our service technicians and reps. I rated everything at 4 stars because there is always room for improvement. Stewart is growing every day and implementing new techniques and programs to guarantee our service and make us a Top Option for any Document Workflow Process.
