Pros

You have a lot of freedom with your time. There is very little real supervision of what you do day to day.

Cons

Your manager at MOS will be cracking the whip and demanding certain levels of activity which is to be expected in any sales role. However when the "plan" is from 1987 and has not changed or adapted to today's business climate that can be problematic. While MOS was once a leader in the market and had some unique value it has been surpassed by its competition. The leadership of this company seems to have its head stuck in the sand and stuck in times past when they were a market leader. The company cannot keep its accounts if you are a sales rep the most frightening thing in the world is when you find out that there is going to be competition in one of your accounts because that means 1 of 2 things... 1. You WILL lose that account or 2. You will make next NO MONEY. There was once a time at MOS when the expectation of attaining quota as an individual was a realistic thing, but now if you are not one of the top 3 or 4 reps this is an absolute pipe dream. To make a long story short if you are looking to start a sales career don't fall prey to this company... They will lie to you in the interview process and sell you on all of the potential. You really have to ask yourself why are there always so many openings and why cant they get top talent anymore? Answer: Scroll down through the Glassdoor reviews and it will become clear. This is not a place where anyone should work... including the current employees.
