Pros
- may get off early some days -Resume brand name -base salary is okay- rumor was bonuses weren't really being given to lower management any more
Cons
This is a great job for you enjoy waking up and being at stores by 6 am each morning. As an Account Manager your job is to count boxes on the shelves, around the store & in the cooler, and the back. You are an Order Taker- this not sales. This is a glorified merchandiser. Coke is known in the grocery market for their horrible service and just pushing boxes. To be in compliance and receive the full amount of reimbursement and mileage for your vehicle it can not be more than 5 years old, so every 5 years you are expected to get a new car. Management is not on the same page and every e-mail you receive is FYI... if you want to be apart of the bigger process as an Account Manager, you are not. Many times you start at 6am and then have to help out other territories by sticking things on shelves (POS) and doing your merchandising duties of facing coke bottles, building displays, stacking boxes, and getting chewed out about how much Coke is disliked. -Talks about Chinese company buyout.
