Pros

At one time the benefits were great. At one time promotion was a nice word regarded for hard workers.

Cons

Again Managers not understanding how to manage or How to inspire team play. Directors not concerned with promoting long term goals of the business...A lot just want to ride out their last years before retirement!!

Pros

Wonderful benefits along with solid base pay. Commission structure is alright. Vacation is plentiful as long as the numbers are there.

Cons

Number, Number, Numbers...I like selling but if you are not selling or fall on couple hard months see you later. It is the hero to zero mentality every month and it gets old. Need more support in day to day operations. Cannot sell sell sell like they state when I have some much maintenance with existing customers that need help.

Pros

Great Network and Great Products to sell. Great Compensation! Great Benefits! Great opportunity for career advancement within the company.

Cons

Expect to put in long hours. All jobs are sales related and result in the companies bottom line. Everyday is about how you are going to accomplish your sales quotas and how you are going to exceed your customers expecations. If you have the time to put in and are truely dedicated to the work, you will go places with in this company. Burnout is easy if you stay in one postion to long. Always be looking for next position and fine tune your skill sets to get there. Managers will help but you have to ask for feedback on what to do to get better. (They tend to focus on the negative things.)
