Pros

Knowing that the weekend is near. :)

Cons

Inept executive leadership continues to make decisions without a sense of the future of the company. Leadership is not very capable of making far-reaching decisions without harming the company, employee morale, or shareholder confidence. No other place I've worked in 30+ years has had this continuous level of incompetence at the top. I thought I had worked in a few bad companies before, but this one took the cake. Lower-level management appears to be capable of making sound business decisions and setting direction but senior leadership changes direction frequently, without warning, and in what is a nonsensical reaction to situations resulting in negative outcomes. Publicly announcing major changes to the business then not following through on those announcements are devastating to morale.

Pros

Great compensation, benefits, and hours. Get to know many clients and businesses on route. Lots of exercise. Lots of alone time.

Cons

For some, the alone time can be very lonely. You are in a van or truck for many hours. Podcasts, radio, hands-free: get to love it. Sometimes logistics can be unpredictable. Delays, traffic, on-call pickups. You have to be very flexible and adaptive with fairly quick critical thinking skills to excel at this job.

Pros

Get entry level sales position. The company has great benefits..

Cons

You will be calling 80-100 times per day for months until you get promoted but it’s a fairly easy job. Can just be boring.
