Pros

Job security, safe environment, great pay, work truck, free phone, great health care, zero micro-management, own set schedule

Cons

They buy as many companies as they can, but keep their own junk operating procedures. Most companies they buy are doing much better than them, so they buy them, and continue down their crappy path. Domination by size not efficiency at this point.

Pros

Excellent benefits and a plethora of tools ans support. Company truck for sales reps at $75 per pay period. It’s a very well known company so you get a lot of business from national accounts. If you can get your foot in the door, it’s an experience that’s worth it. No regrets.

Cons

Due to their size and like so many publicly traded companies, there is a huge disconnect on the expectations. My manager did his best but you could tell his bosses were asking for unachievable results. My sales manager was clueless at her role and no sales experience to lead a team. Things she would ask from us were counter productive. Not anything I couldn’t deal with.
