Pros

- 3 weeks PTO given at beginning of year - Not very cut throat - Good training program for new employees - Cafe on site

Cons

- Certain heavyweight shipments the company allows you to sell to customers but does not pay you on them. Baffling that they can get away with this. Its genius for the company, they let you sell and they get the revenue but don't pay the sales rep. - Recent changes make hitting commission WAY harder - Management took away ability to work OT - Low base salary of 35k - Quarterly commissions (miss commission one quarter and you go 6 months without receiving a commission check. This happens to every sales rep as the average sales rep hits commission 2/4 quarters) - Company is struggling financially (no growth for past 5 months) - Company cares about irrelevant KPI's rather than revenue - Company is a shell of what it once was several years ago, avoid working here

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.
