Pros

Outstanding training with good internal support. There is a strong support system from the broker and manufacturer community to help push sales growth. Depth of product line is at the head of the industry. The corporation is a blue chip company.

Cons

Old boy network is very evident both internally and externally. Only the best customers and prospects are really paid attention too. Although you start with a salary, be assured you will be 100% commission. Industry is ultra competitve and you have to have new accounts flowing to fill gaps in lost sales from existing customers due to flat industry growth, closings, pricing issues, credit issues etc...The competition from within(overlapping territories) is also a sight to behold. Overall, the corporation is strong, but be prepared for life on the streets.

Pros

It's the largest distributor in North America and the pay and benefits are very competitive for that line of work.

Cons

Some favoritism towards some of the employees over others was kind of annoying. Some people undeserving of promotion received them anyway without much consideration for anyone else.
