Pros

Continuous company growth through acquisitions, wonderful personalities in all levels of the company, no fear of layoffs on the corporate side, and a constant opportunity for cross-training and learning new skills.

Cons

New skills were learned on an as-needed basis, simply because you were within earshot of the task to be done. HR and Executives never showed compassion toward the 16,000 employees.

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
