Can get all of the OR device sales experience and training which enables you to move into bigger opportunities down the line.

Cons

Recent upper management changes in this division are starting to affect the company. To much movement, jockeying and changes in management style that has worked for a number of years has started to encourage successful managers and reps to leave for other opportunities.
