Pros

Ability to move up (if willing to move), salary increases, stable job, clear on job responsibilities, decent sales tools, it's a needed service and easier to sell, service is not complicated to sell, holidays off, good vacation days, nice corporate structure, good people. If you consider working here make sure you can work well with the hiring manager and their a good fit for your personality. Your experience here will all depend on if you work for a good sales manager and its a hit or miss situation if you don't evaluate thoroughly.

Cons

Long contracts that are tight and hard to catch companies to convert, if you have a manager who is not moving up it will be hard for you to move up, have to heavily rely on operations and when fail it can mess up the reputation of your product locally. Sometimes forces outside of your control can impact your selling negatively or prevent you from selling at all.

Pros

Annual raises, commissions, trips, meals

Cons

Every business unit acts independently, competes for sales and servicing the customer comes second to this. Old school vs new school tensions.
