Pros

Control over time. Easy product to sell. Field sales has little or no involvement with customer service issues.

Cons

Cannot Speak about the whole organization. Can speak on NJ Franchise. Owner made several large misrepresentations, including agreeing to a base salary and then when a contracting was presented it was lower without saying anything like I was too thick to read it. Several other basic areas misrepresented including territory integrity (internally within the franchise) and car allowance.. The owner was made aware of my financial goals and initially agreed this was attainable. It quickly became obvious this could only happen after many years of effort. The owner also had a habit of accusing of things not done. When it was imperially discovered this was not the case, he never apologized for the rash accusation. In addition he always blamed his silent partner for being the "bad cop"(really annoying) Needless to say, I was quickly not interested in making this work long term

Pros

- Can stack some good foundational capital right out of college - Training was okay, but could use a lot of improvement - Fridays were pretty nice looking back on it

Cons

- Sales scripts don’t sell in this day in age - Buyers are informed and intelligent, add value on the operational side since the pricing isn’t anything special - Unishippers is backed by private equity, that means you will be cold calling all day - These people do not care about you, you are just a number on a spreadsheet - 7% commission is fixed, go to a company that offers tiered commission so you actually get more for the money you make for the company - Management will not give you space to breathe, expect to be micromanaged regardless of performance - You will have to spend extra time after work servicing accounts - You are expected to do things outside of your moral compass, research the lawsuits and that will pretty much tell you everything (Goes back to being backed by private equity) - No company match - Will get sold a dream, not the actual reality - Very high turnover, churn and burn environment
