Pros

Lot's of Training - you can take it & use it, or just sit through it.... They train on the same things over & over so eventualy you get it - or you don't make it in sales. Flexability you can make adjustments to your day if you need to as you set your route up how it will work best for you & customers

Cons

Lot's of hours, work 7 days a week even if just checking voice mail on one of the days (usually have more to do than check voice mail) Hard to grow a profitable route as they over lap sales people in every area. This is the hardest easy job you will ever have.

Pros

Good benefits. Those that make it to 7-8+ years seem happy, knowledgeable and make decent money.

Cons

Very "Lord of the Flies" the first few years. Your life literally revolves around work 24/7 and you are subject to the whims of often incompetent restaurant owners who take out their lack of business skills on you. Almost ZERO customer loyalty in most cases. Many talented sales reps leave because of frustration with the sales/customer dynamic in this field.
