Pros

good benefit packages and is a reputable company good reputation within industry / Provides Sales employees with a vehicle and expense account to use for personal uses after work. Is very generous and pays for employees to travel a lot and enjoy alcoholic beverages. They partner with other companies to throw big parties. The company pays for everything

Cons

Paying Caucasian male Consultants, no degree education requirements six figure salaries and females with equal experience with college education less / Employees with poor health are a greater liability when driving company owned vehicles around intoxicated on person time.

Pros

Very nice coworkers and you get to travel a good amount in your first year. Guided training process wasn’t bad

Cons

Low pay and long hours. The contract they’ll have you sign in misleading on salary. You’re basically going to be a hourly employee your first 2/3 years and more likely than not are not going to be making the amount on the contract unless you do a lot of overtime. There is a lot of corporate pressure on being able to move wherever they tell you to also. My best advice is to look at what your local managers lives are like and consider if they’re happy or not. You have to have a certain amount of being a loner in you to be ok with their outlandish moving expectations.
