Pros

Reading some of these previous reviews on the company and having been with the organization for 5+ years, I'm shocked to see some of these comments; most more negative than positive. I've seen our Sales Team grow from one market to five and 34 to 150+ reps, which is exciting and a true testament to the company's growth. During this time, I have seen the reps who stay dedicated to the job and sales process do extremely well, while the others that are so focused on what the other rep is doing, or what account the other rep closed, lose steam and fizzle out. As a note, we're selling 3 year contracts, not monthly orders of snacks, so the close does take time. It's not about how is everyone else doing, it's about how you're doing and if you can focus on that, you'll be fine. We have been getting better at having our Sales Team events be focused on Team Building, and while drinking is involved sometimes, it's not as huge a focus as other reviews have stated. In addition, the company revamped it's pay structure and you're getting paid residuals for contracts sold last year, along with a higher salary.

Cons

The biggest con about working at the company is staying away from the rotten apples and letting Management handle them. Our Management Team is provided the resources and tools needed to address, so stay focused on you and you'll do fine.

Pros

Very relaxed work environment and ability to plan your own day. A "it's what you make of it" type position that requires self-motivation and a competitive spirit.

Cons

The base salary makes it hard to stay committed to the work. The environment can verge on "too casual." HR is not very helpful when resolving internal disputes and on many occasions has turned away from issues that would result in termination at any other company. Too relaxed.

Pros

Good starting sales job for those right out of college. Young, relaxed office environment. Decent commission structure for sales.

Cons

Immature office, a lot of drinking incentives creates a poor attitude amongst sales floor.
