Pros

Strong company reputation that helps in the selling process. The branch personnel are very professional and supportive. Lucrative profit sharing plan.

Cons

Sales Managers are out of touch and play favorites. The goal setting process for all sellers is ridiculous and inconsistent and whether or not you reach your monthly and yearly number comes down to pure luck.
