Pros

Pay is above average and it looks good on a resume. You will form a trauma bond with your co-workers.

Cons

Male-dominated industry, training is non existent (it’s a training program..), management doesn’t care about your feelings, refuses to give overtime (even when you work til 10pm), waited until august of 2020 to do any social distancing measures. Young people get infantilized. Everyone in the industry has been there for decades, so if you’re in your 20’s you will get walked on and disrespected. Your training will suffer because you are young.

Large company that you can get lost in. A bit disjointed but, not severely.

Pros

First of all, the College Program they have is run excellently, with good leaders in that department. I highlight this because, sadly, the rest of the company is not run as well. You get the opportunity to interview with branches across the nation, and potentially get relocated to somewhere the *should* give you a good career boost. This job does have great benefits, and pays well for a entry level job. The catch is, your experience relies heavily on where you get placed and who your immediate manager is. - Good Pay, benefits - Opportunity to learn and grow (the industry is super complicated at first) - Being able to pick your branch (if your good at what you do) - Kind of job where you can leave your work at home. I was always out by 4:30 every day. Detail oriented position, you need to be well organized.

Cons

Branch Mgmt. does not take your development into account at all, you have to be on them if you want to get any of what the SDP is supposed to do. Once I was trained, I was put on a desk and handled the same account for 18 months, with no real movement. If i did not approach my manager about training sessions, or even the chance to go on a outside sales call or delivery run, he would never address it. They didn't even do monthly meetings to go over your progress (unless you request it). Again, this depends on your local manager. - No real care for your development - No real office culture. - Poor Training, Poor problem solving - Good Ol Boys Club (interpret that however you want)
