Great culture, but not efficient business practices

Manager, international sales

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

fast paced, great compensation plan, interesting industry, they generally try to promote from within which is great. the culture is amazing too.

Cons

work-life balance, outdated internal systems, just not an efficient company. business model is flawed. they want you to have a minimum of 25 visits per week on top of prospecting/cold calling, all of the admin work like pricing, tracking shipments, onboarding new customers, maintenance of existing accounts, etc. You can't just focus on what is important, you have to do it all.

Business Outlook

Pros

it is so incredibly fluid that it allows many to slip under the rader and never do an honest days work to save their lives

Cons

typical to many largest companies,some situations are very political and too much read tape in the decision making process. since the company has downsized drastically, the numbers of opportunities available has become more limited
