Pros

Best health and dental and overall benefits in the business.

Cons

Nobody allowed to stay long enough to reap the best benefits. Inner circle members and anointed ones are the only ones who get the opportunity to make real commission. Managers take the credit for all awards and accolades, and give none to the troops.

Pros

company car vacation sales meeting strong team mates

Cons

A weak salary compared to other management jobs in the same field. Promise of a bonus to help off set the weak salary and to make up for the fact you are salary and working 60+ hours a week for 40 weeks a year. (and then getting 0 for a bonus ) As soon as the year looks bad due to weather or bad sales they start laying people off and try to spin it as a positive and SM's end up with double the work load to make up for it, while being under paid. No quality of life we are still working 6 days a week for 7 months out of the year answering emails till 11pm at night and on Sundays our one day off. Forget having a family you never get to see them. The company feels like it can get you to do anything with out complaining because they know the economy is bad so its hard to find anything else and is using it against there employees. we are all just easily replaced parts in the big Scotts machine
