      Yellow Book is a good place to work depending on who the management in your specific territory.

      Pros

      I was completely new to outside sales and they gave me a position as account representative. Withing the first year, I was promoted to account executive. If your are making the expected numbers, you can knock off early or take more vacation days depending on the manager. It has a professional yet relaxed atmosphere.

      Cons

      The downside is you are expected to grow your portfolio by thirty percent in every territory that you go. Even in good economic times this is difficult. You receive accounts that were some one else the past year, so you never have the chance to establish relationships with any accounts. If the last person made a bad impression you must overcome that as well as build on their existing account.

      Good for training and beginners. It all depends on local management

      Pros

      As in most sales jobs you have more freedom. They provide an intensive three week training off site that provides a good stepping stone. They are moving towards more of an ad agency model

      Cons

      They are followers in the industry, not leaders. They have expanded product offerings but too little and way too late. In most markets they are not the #1 print book used, in some cases by a long shot, and shrinking the book doesn't appear to have changed that much. Upper management is the white boys club although I believe most of the salesforce is composed of women. Just guessing that but it is sad nonetheless. This company has for years been about getting bigger and not better. You are but a number in a huge corporation that is about the bottom line. Your happiness, future success, like in all huge corporations depends on your local management. YB can be the best or the worst place on earth depending on the market and who they are.
