      Good company if you have no desire to advance your career

      Pros

      Somewhat competitive pay. If you do your job you will have job security. Retirement benefits in the form of Profit Sharing

      Cons

      No room for advancement. No incentive to promote from within. glass ceiling. Being the best at your current role and qualified to advance doesn't mean anything to hiring managers. It is all about who you know and not what you know.,

      Account Manager

      Pros

      Great training and PTO plus profit sharing if you stay long enough. Great starting point to the industrial sales area. Most co workers were friendly.

      Cons

      Hire experienced managers who managed a team and not a little league baseball team. The blame game is always on the account manager even if you have no control of a situation as a contract with another company. Watch out for your Onsite Service Consultants. They will throw you under the bus if they want your position.
