Pros

Highley tested, quality designed products to sell. Decent brand marketing capabilities. Talented sales force to work with...for now. I truly enjoy the fact that I'm no longer with them.

Cons

Internal political environment that does include customer accounts. Yes, OC's management culture allows some customer accounts to dictate who is employed on OC's sales force creating an unfair advantage for that customer. Corporate greed, pricing approvals just outside of competitive reach in your market dooming your ability to compete. An unsupportive, non-communication sales support environment. Unethical behavior, OC Management requires competitive pricing knowledge from your customer base placing YOU in an awkward position with your accounts. Because of a communication deficit and an inept sales support staff, the competition can easily out manuver them. Relationships with peer sales team is "clicky" and untrustworthy. Unsupportive Regional Management, addressing any issues with your immediate report to never happens due to a fear laden corporate culture. In short , corporate management turns a deaf ear to any internal negitive support issues you are facing.
