Pros

Good starting pay, decent benefits, 401k and vacation (which you never really get to use).

Cons

Be realistic about having to work every Sunday (6 day work work) and whether or not that is a good fit for you. Every Holiday is also a work day. Pricing tools must be done weekly even if you are on vacation. If you get a good DSM you may find field support, I did not. Routing and deliveries are a hot mess and you cannot make it up to the customers as you cannot carry product. You use your personal phone and car with no cell allowance or mileage reimbursement, By the time the expenses come out and you figure your hours you WILL be underpaid. The starting salary goes away and you are straight commission.

Horrific Work Environment

Pros

Absolutely none, this place is scary bad.

Cons

You are tracked every second of the day. You have unobtainable goals. You are given two 15 minute breaks and one 30 minute lunch however you have to use about 5 minutes of the break time to get to the break area and 5 to get back which brings you to 2 five minute breaks and one 20 minute lunch. The hours are endless and the work is miserable. I’ve never in my life come across such a horrible management staff. This is the sort of thing you read about happing in places like a China, not here. Anybody who supports this company should be ashamed.
