Difficult to balance everything; Not a pure sales environment.
Pros
The company culture was very good. It was a laid back atmosphere where I felt free to take time to wind down by playing ping pong or taking a walk. There is plenty of support if you feel like you need help in a certain area between sales managers and office leaders. This position will give you the opportunity to build cold calling, lead generations, and closing skills but you also have to handle all the operations and billing which takes away from your time selling. The starting salary is also very attractive plus commission once you've been selling for a little while.
Cons
Doing well and hitting your quotas isn't 100% on you. You're subject to truck availability and the time it takes to actually arrange the transportation. Quotas don't take into account what time of year you start selling - not good when shipping slows down in the winter. It's also pretty difficult to become one of the heavy hitters, you almost have to land a large account which are few and far between at this point.
