Pros

Drivers were good to work with

Cons

Everyone else was out for themselves. Sales Rep wasn't technically over me in the chain of command but because he was friends with my boss I basically had to do whatever he wanted and how he wanted. Very over bearing micro-manager even my drivers hated him. Completely ruined the entire experience and pissed off multiple customers due to him making promises as to when concrete could be delivered without consulting me to see what we already had on the books. VERY long hours for a salary pay that was good but not great. Spent the night at work more than once.
