Pros

If you are looking for a transitional sales job (not a career!!!), this isn't a bad place to stop. Benefits are decent, nice to have a company car, co-worker's at my branch were all pretty decent to work with.

Cons

DON'T buy into any promises of bonuses and commissions. If coming from a background with a decent bonus / commission structure.... you will not be happy here. Our branch in Hamilton, MI turned over 4 out of 4 Energy Sales Representatives in less than 9 months. Of course management will explain to you that the representatives were the problem. Believe what you want.... (Keep your guard up... and your resume active and updated!)

Pros

Love this job. I'm out of the office more often then not helping growers answering questions on there agronomic needs and getting back in touch with the growers and producers. Its a sales job but I don't feel like its a sales job. The best part when its not slow and I need time off for my family there isn't any blow-back from management or my bosses they understand. I know this isn't everywhere but its a nice to feel like I can have a life outside of work.

Cons

The draw back is when things get busy they get really busy in the spring its a 7 day a week job and there isnt enough hours in the day, when its slow its extremely slow.

CHS - Good and Bad

Pros

Great work/life balance. Infrequent micro-management. The company wants results and, as long as they get them, you're left alone to do your job.

Cons

Variable pay/bonuses are not as advertised. The company did not make budget this year but still made a trainload of money. They're not paying bonuses. It's supposedly the 6th or 7th best year in company history, but no variable comp. If you're thinking about coming here do not let them put more than 10% of your comp on the bonus system in the negotiations. They'll try to sell you on how great and fair the bonus program is. Get everything you can in the salary because they're not fair with variable comp. A lot of long-term employees are taking a major pay cut this year for no good reason.
