Pros

salary,company car,bonus, company credit card for job related expanses.Leadership brands. No boss looking over your shoulder

Cons

Working more then 45-hours a week. Daily quotas. Even after putting in 50-60 hours a week quota's very difficult to hit. In the time I was there I worked 6 day's week with minimum of 9 hours. Thats why the company has high turn-over rate.

Pros

401k, healthcare plan, tuition reimbursment plan, overall very good benefits package. Luxury goods category with great brands in a cool industry (premium cigars). Macanudo, Cohiba, CAO, Partagas, Punch, etc. Great place to work if you are creative, entrepreneurial, and want to put your own stamp on a product/company. Good leadership team.

Cons

Sometimes management forgets to catch people doing things right. It's tobacco, so it's a very challenging, fast paced category.
