Territory Manager- Good company to work for if you're willing to work hard.

Territory manager

Business Outlook

Pros

There is opportunity to grow within the company if you're willing to work hard. The health insurance is very affordable and good. If you work hard you will get rewarded.

Cons

Work life balance doesn't exist. You have 3 months to fill up a yard with equipment and after that auction is over you have to do it again at least 5 times a year. When the year is over you look back and wonder where did the time go.

Pros

There are some great people that work for The company.

Cons

With being A world wide multi-million dollar company, the benefits aren't that great. Your opinion does not matter in the U.S. Head Office. The Managers don't get a long. They do not work with parents/single parents well and do not understand the needs of a parent of a child who has a disability. Salary for such a large company is very low. Head Office can't keep new employees very long. If you're not in Sales you're over looked. Sales gets bonuses 3 times a year, everyone else gets a "Turkey Bonus" of $100, after tax its less than $90.

Pros

Once you've proven yourself and show value, it can be somewhat flexible. The nature of the job is 12-14 hr days routinely, but you feel accomplished. Also way over worked though.

Cons

You're overworked and micromanaged.
