Pros
Opportunity to represent the most prestigious name in the golf industry. Quality products that are top sellers in nearly every golf shop. Great customer base who are very loyal to the brand. I always had a great relationship with my immediate managers and felt that they were always on your side. Pay used to be good when you were promoted to the field, but that has changed in recent years.
Cons
It has been very sad to see the decline of this company as the new (private) ownership has changed the overall atmosphere. This company used to value its employees and that showed in the long tenure of many of the sales representatives. Recently there have been many layoffs purely for the reason to cut costs and increase the company's value on paper with no regard for the future. I made the mistake of having loyalty towards the company and thinking it would always be there for me. Morale has been plummeting as long term (and productive) employees have been let go with no warning. On the product side, the motto has seemed to be "Fire, Ready, Aim" in recent years which has resulted in frustrated customers waiting for backordered product. Definitely a male dominated operation -- especially on the sales and management fronts.
