Pros

You can make a lot of money if the management wants you to.

Cons

Managers are corrupt and decide if they want you to make money. After building up a territory they can take it away and give it to a favorite even after they say they won't. Then they make you start over in a new territory that isn't paying very much while a favorite employee benefits from your hard work with your old territory. Local management lies to upper management.

Pros

Immediate managers I encountered were generally flexible if hours needed to be adjusted for personal needs. They often found new positions for people they liked when things weren't working where they had been plugged in. Lots of good people around, some with lonnnnnngg careers with the company.

Cons

I'm not saying this as somebody with an ax to grind, because I recognize that this company put food on my table for many years. There were departments with policies that treated employees like machine parts, with a ridiculous vacation selection process that had people in line behind other people with completely different job functions; forced furlough days during lean times; etc. Job titles didn't always match job functions, and in those cases the wage/work scale was bent in the company's favor – they paid you for A, but you were really doing B and that should be worth more.
