Sales management

Pros

Strong global brands. Strong industry presence. Engaging associates. Slightly innovative, willing to work with retailers to collaborate, partner, invest in win win outcomes.

Cons

Work life balance is non existent. Heavy work loads and not enough head count to support sales teams. Upper management hires outside consultants to come in and reduce management spans/layers, piling more responsibility on the sales managers. Also only a chosen few will get the opportunity to move to upper management, and the majority of sales managers can only look for lateral moves.

Pros

large company with many benefits; very helpful employee services call center; not too much red tape; flat organization, not too many layers of management

Cons

not very good pay; many short cuts taken in an effort to be very quick to market (often resulting in rework); to get a promotion, you have to apply to a different job - jobs are set at one particular level and there is no growth within that specific role
