Pros

+ This job offers some very solid and stable positions, particularly for sales and designers. + Work culture is overall respectful and joyous. + Communication between sales and graphic designers is very effective and generally pleasant. + Team work is very important and often integral to success.

Cons

- Some weeks work can either be abundant and chaotic or extremely limited (not a very frequent problem) - Whenever there's major changes in the company they can be somewhat daunting upon first heating (however management does a phenomenal job at working with its employees to ensure the best possible outcome for all parties involved)

Pros

The base salary is nice if you are coming straight out of college.

Cons

It seems like a great opportunity at first, but the truth is that you will be assigned a territory and all of the best accounts and prospects in that territory are already taken by the senior reps. They micromanage, you will fill out a "daily" that tracks each business you went to that day and your manager may even show up randomly in your territory to check up on you. The Flyer magazine is outdated and quite honestly it does not work. Most business owners already know this because the company has been around for 40 years. There's not much opportunity for a new rep to go out there and make money.

Pros

Very little pros....um..you get paid, but you must your butt for a very small commission.

Cons

Forced to sell the Flyer book - it is well past its prime. A few chosen ones control most of the decent accounts. Trying to sell their internet products, but it is not an internet company. Charges several prices for the same product.
