Pros

Large breadth of product which to sell and wonderful backing from manufacturing partners.

Cons

Poor mid-level management. The company will place longtime employees in management roles for divisions they have no experience with. There's a lack of understanding from some of these management types and they choose to lead by fear.

Pros

Job security, work stays at work, hard to get fired. Solid benefits. Good name recognition in job searches.

Cons

Company is keeping wages lower. No commissions. Short of gross negligence, very few people are let go. Training is 100% on the job so standard operating procedures are constantly screwed up. Management makes a lot of noise about promotions and comes up short when the time comes. They underpay everyone, especially managers.

Pros

Good pay, good benefits, they send you to trainings which is nice but they're not really training you on anything useful.

Cons

Training is a joke. Get ready to get thrown into a position and have no idea what you're doing. Then people get annoyed since you don't know what you're doing. Very short staffed so everyone is stressed out. They hire maybe 10 people a year for the entire country, then 5 quit, then they wonder why half their branches are understaffed.
