Pros

There is a real since of ownership and responsibility. The income is great and the positions are relatively the same year over year. Opportunity to grow within the company is a possibility if you are a performer. Great benefits as well. If you put in the work and show leadership ability the possibilities are unlimited. The senior mngmt have all been in the entry level roles and worked their way up. Its nice to be coached by people who know what you do for a living. Great TEAM environment! A lot of good changes over the last couple years. Good job up top!

Cons

You have to be willing to put in the time. Not that it's a con. Realize that most great paying jobs require more work. Big pay checks come from hard work. No con's from me!

Pros

- Very very easy to move up in the company. If you dedicate a couple years and show skill in sales you can move up to a sales manager position extremely fast. If you are willing to move the opportunity to move up is even significantly easier and faster. - Almost all of management started at the bottom and worked their way up, if possible they always hire from within. - Good money, get out what you put in. - Direct Management is great, local and even regional management is almost even fantastic, but any higher then that becomes out of touch and very frustrating to (albeit indirectly) work with.

Cons

- Inconsistent at times about expectations, at times asking for one thing then immediately needing the other. Can be frustrated to be pulled in so many directions, but not even remotely unmanageable. - Lot's of hours, especially in management. Prime time? (March-End of May) Say goodbye to your personal life! Mandatory 1/2 day Saturdays, definitely a grind but worth it. - Frustrating policies and illogical outlook on what success looks like.
