Pros
High level of autonomy with genuine freedom to manage your own diary and territory. The colleagues are supportive and knowledgeable, which makes a big difference in a field-based role. Guaranteed pay increases provide reassurance and demonstrate clear investment in employees. The company’s training programme is second to none and really sets you up with a strong understanding of sales, products, and the wider industry. There are also good internal progression opportunities, both within the UK and internationally, for those looking to develop their career long term.
Cons
Territory size can be challenging at times and may require nights away in hotels, which won’t suit everyone. The training programme can be difficult, especially in the first 6 months and it can be difficult to manage the workload during this period.
