Pros
A consistent work schedule. Ability to increase pay with more sales. Great benefits- pension, sharepower options, medical, dental, vision, short and long term disability, many other added benefits. Light weight work compared to other vendor jobs in similar food retail. We are the leader in snack foods and that creates the sense of pride in the company that we are number 1.
Cons
no sick time off without a financial penalty. in other words, if you are out sick you receive $80 per day. For most, this is about 50% of the normal income for that day. Demanding sales plans/goals. Sometimes its impossible to achieve their expectations in regards to sales. They expect double digit growth when they know the economy is in a recession. Mandatory or mandated account layouts and promotions give very little room for creativity. The company has too much dead weight and too many people who collect a paycheck and barely justify why they're employed.
