Pros

It could be a good starter job in sales for someone but the industry is dying fast. If you need it for sales on a resume you could make 65-80K but it is a dying business. Better off going to a Ricoh Dealer if you want to sell copy machines, they will pay better.

Cons

Layoffs every 6 months, year after year, after year. Very depressing and toxic work environment when your job is at stake every single day. I believe they cut over 30,000 employees worldwide over the last 6-8 years. It is brutal.

Pros

Creative Services team in North America is led by an absolutely stellar Brand Director, with a fantastic team that continues to smash it. The wider business and fellow employees have always been genuinely kind, and the office environment is very friendly as well.

Cons

I truly can't think of any! The team and atmosphere is great!

Pros

• Decent pay • Great benifits • Car allowance/reimbursement for a personal vehicle and depreciation • The ability to travel and build relationships with customers • Learning mechanical and electrical skills • Independence and teamwork

Cons

• They just started enforcing the new commute policy which requires technicians to now give the company an hour of their time to and from work, if the customer is that distance away from their home at the beginning or end of day. Ultimately stealing up to 2 hours from the technician every single day and effectively punishing you for living so far away from a customer site. • Always coming with new ways to screw over technicians. They also just implemented new metrics that contribute to or take away from your bonus. • Sales reps usually always get the wrong equipment delivered to a customer and you have to be the one to deal with a screwed up mess • Lack of communication between sales/deliveries/management
