Pros

Stable job. Benefits are ok

Cons

Management sucks,pay sucks no overtime. Let's employees get away with alot that they probably shouldn't be able to, they commission plan sucks you make almost no money with it. Make you donut bound calls which 99% of the customers you are calling already have a sales rep. So if you sell them something the sales rep takes that sale and management sides with the other sales rep so you look bad when they told you to call

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
