Pros

Great team spirit. Fantastic senior management committed to it's employees. Great work/life balance where many colleagues actually spend personal time together outside of the office. I miss our soccer team. Rapid and meaningful career advancement for top performers with international opportunities for those who could be itnerested.

Cons

Having to answer to a German parent with senior management overly/only concerned with personal agenda. Other than my ratings for senior management, my opinions are based on the US office. Sadly, the "real" senior management are in Germany and having worked there as an expat for 3 years, it's clear the US is the black sheep of the family and management there prefers to raise their personal stock than address corporate issues.

Pros

Great compensation, benefits, and hours. Get to know many clients and businesses on route. Lots of exercise. Lots of alone time.

Cons

For some, the alone time can be very lonely. You are in a van or truck for many hours. Podcasts, radio, hands-free: get to love it. Sometimes logistics can be unpredictable. Delays, traffic, on-call pickups. You have to be very flexible and adaptive with fairly quick critical thinking skills to excel at this job.

Pros

Get entry level sales position. The company has great benefits..

Cons

You will be calling 80-100 times per day for months until you get promoted but it’s a fairly easy job. Can just be boring.
