Pros

- Company products is similar to Apple in mobile industry. Expensive but worth it. Good monopoly and control over automation industry. - Will not hire unethically from other companies for any posts. You will have to grow from step 1 here. - Good field work experience which gives you oppurtunities to learn new things every day - treats you like kings in terms of salary, travelling, hotel stay

Cons

- Similar to East India company, all masters are Japanese and all slaves are Indian - Answer to all problems is money - No work life balance and also no co curricular activities. - family can never visit your company or be involved in at least once activity in a year - Achievement parties means drunkards enjoying like fools and non-drinkers need to be present to be frustrated and angry and to give minimum attendance

Pros

Fast paced work environment. CRM is the best I have ever had access to. Data tracking and sales insight is top notch. The regional director for TSS in Michigan/Indiana is great to work under. Leads are easily available, the product is great and it’s easy to get in the door places.

Cons

Metrics are more focused on quantity over quality. Frequently working 50+ hour weeks. Too many reps per territory and it can create a negative perception. Bonus structure vs straight commission is frusterating. Clear advancement structure however being ranked against peers with different sales targets in frusterating. Feels like a turn and burn type of mentality towards sales reps.
