Pros

Outstanding training with good internal support. There is a strong support system from the broker and manufacturer community to help push sales growth. Depth of product line is at the head of the industry. The corporation is a blue chip company.

Cons

Old boy network is very evident both internally and externally. Only the best customers and prospects are really paid attention too. Although you start with a salary, be assured you will be 100% commission. Industry is ultra competitve and you have to have new accounts flowing to fill gaps in lost sales from existing customers due to flat industry growth, closings, pricing issues, credit issues etc...The competition from within(overlapping territories) is also a sight to behold. Overall, the corporation is strong, but be prepared for life on the streets.
