Business Outlook

Pros

Great training, good base pay, good opportunity for growth, great benefits.

Cons

Horrible commission plan and good luck getting a full bonus check; management will find a way to cut it down to very little. It's also a very silo'ed company and your biggest competition may come from other sales reps from other divisions of the company. There's no team atmosphere and it's very challenging to put together a team to land large opportunities.

Pros

Flexible schedule with adequate vacation and sick time. Compensation is fair to good. Meets most people's expectations. Overall happy !

Cons

Open ended contract and currently up for negotiation. Do not know if we are to be resigned. A little scary since I have not been in this situation before.
