Pros

Good benefits and perks; clothing allowance; safety a high priority

Cons

Performance requirements are changing. Hours and start times will vary (20-50 hours per week and every 3rd or 4th Saturday; 3:30, 4:30, 6 or 7 am and 1 pm times are typical). Training is incomplete and hit and miss, yet you will be required to sign off on items you haven't seen. A smart phone with texting and navigation capability is highly recommended (at your expense). You should be able to process a high number of pieces per delivery to unfamiliar locations and customers and stay on schedule. Fairly high employee turnover rate.

the only positive is that for someone new to sales this can be a good stepping stone.

Cons

Manage by intimidation, poor work life balance, poorly managed warehouse and transportation departments, leadership has no ability to motivate, compensation does not match responsibilities, a total lack of internal support, the list can go on......

Pros

The best money for the type of work. Good and well maintained equipment. The benefits are the best within the industry.

Cons

Poor communication by supervisors. Information is slow getting out. Tasks are not always clearly defined. Reactive management versus proactive management.
