Pros

good benefits, company car, 401k, base salary, good group of guys to work with locally and that can be important

Cons

going away from service in a service based industry. Bonus dollars and income growth is becoming limited. Over priced on "street business" and the distributor pricing structure is hard to justify to the customers at times. Company likes to rotate customers to other reps in the metro areas and that causes problems. Overloading customers with product and spare parts and letting the next rep deal with the upset customers, its really too bad.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
