Pros

The benefit of working for this company, with respect to technical sales, is having the greatest industry brand, experts, and technology in your tool belt, all while having the camaraderie and leadership of a small local team. This company makes real efforts to support its employees in their business processes. Good leadership and training support.

Cons

No apparel or uniform allowance. Some challenges with business processes - legal/contract processing, delivery logistics, services coordination, software management - made for challenging account management.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
