Pros

A fun product to sell and typically fun young people to work with. You didnt have a manager always looking over your shoulder.

Cons

Little room for upward mobility. They would always hire outside for supervisors. Even if you get your route finished early you have to wait on the slower people to get back to warehouse before you can leave. We had to clean the bathrooms and the warehouse.

Pros

Great benefits package, company car, most co workers are good to work with. Wear what you want, cool events.

Cons

Insane work load. In busy markets, 12-14hr days, 6-7 days a week. Useless layer of middle management implemented a year and half ago stalls any progress or creativity. Deadlines come out of nowhere and you always feel like you are not keeping up. Impossible to get a straight answer or decision without going thru numerous people to sign off on. Decisions change at moments notice. Slow to reimburse expenses and pay vendors because of approval process. Red Bull walks a thin line on ethical treatment of employees and equal employment issues. Numerous questionable decisions on hiring practices.

Pros

If you dont have a life outside of work this is the job for you. There are alot of events to participate in (only if your budget allows it). This was a great job with great benefits.

Cons

Red Bull is an image company. Doesnt matter if they are right or wrong as long as they think they are the cools kids on the block. The employees are young and have "drink the Kool Aid". They think Red Bull is the only way. With a real competitor hitting the market "Monster" reality is changing
