Pros
The comprehensive training program was really great and intuitive. 2 week classroom training and then 3 months apprenticeship where you learned how to build your book of business and navigate the CRM.
Cons
Where to start, this is not a 9 to 5 job. They expect you to work after hours and on the weekends, and if you don't then "You're not team player." The pay is below the market average, and in my 2 years of working at Schneider I never once got a raise. We had 2 performance reviews each year and if you exceeded all expectations you got a pat on the back, and if you ask for a raise, they lean on the "That is what Commission is for." Managers play favorites, you can not and will not advance if a manager doesn't like you. Majority of the managers and directors have all been together since they started, and they've monopolized the Chicago manager positions for their friends. Lastly, non of these managers or directors have your best interests, they all have an agenda and it is to advance to the next position even if it is to a detriment to their team.
