Pros

Decent pay for someone starting on sales. Travel 3-4 days a week helps with hotel and airline miles.

Cons

Did layoffs in 2020 and managers didn’t want to cover a territory so told laid off individuals to keep working the day and have them “double check the validity” where you go onsite representing FARO while off of payroll and not getting paid for work. Then managers will “pick up” assets that aren’t on your asset list by having you store them in your home for a year and a half after layoffs just to ship back at your expense.

Pros

There were talented employees scored good points for the company's innovation and new technology.

Cons

The middle layer management along with some senior employees who worked there over 20 years formed a clique to prioritize their own security and the status quo. I witnessed top management and bottom employees constantly leave while they remain as gatekeepers. Be aware of the "friendly and candid" conversation initiated by your direct manager. It is data collection for the next round of layoff.
