A good place to start

Pros

It's a great place to start your career and will expose you to a wide array of experiences in the CPG space. I also have a ton of freedom when it comes to work life balance.

Cons

At least on my team, within 5 years you'll fall off the pace of what other employers would be compensating you. Additionally, as you can tell by the stock performance, the brick & mortar CPG industry is appears to be sinking, lending to an uncertain future.

Pros

Company car w/ gas, great PTO, some travel opportunities

Cons

The worst work/life balance, terrible management, safety concerns, door-to-door sales, always sitting in a car, have to work evenings and weekends, management doesn't value the employees they have, people look down on you when you knock on their doors, no room for creativity, lonely, overall just a terrible job. The company says they're always staying up-to-date with change, but in reality, they still put giant boxes behind TVs and it takes hours to install the clunky boxes.

Pros

Work from home, competitive salary. Easy to shine against the existing systems.

Cons

Too many layers of middle management. Middle layers consists of average skills, politics in the only way to get anything to move forward. Decisions are driven by politics and not necessarily by best approaches for company.
