Pros

Lots of work to be done, have some control over your schedule

Cons

You’re expected to work overtime. You have goals that can be hard to meet unless you’re aggressively upselling your clients. The team is always swamped so it’s hard to get support. Pay is low for how difficult the work is. Takes a year + to really understand how to service all the machines and products that they offer

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
