Pros
There are only a few positives I can think of that could be said about working at Advantage Sales and Marketing. One would be if you are straight out of college it would be an opportunity to have employment experience on a resume. The other would be if you are desperate and in-between jobs.
Cons
The Question is what happens to this company? The company once paid at least what most would deem as a decent wage. With more and more elevated responsibilities the company is bleeding their employees by taking away car allowances and gas cards and replacing that compensation with on average 36 cents per mile. They expect the federal government to pick up the differential in government allowance for mileage. Employees are getting their year end taxes done to find out that after spending hundreds of dollars out of their own pocket that they will now get a tax return refund of maybe 200 dollars for all the gas they paid for all year long. Why is such a large company expecting the Federal Government to pay for what should be Advantages cost of doing business? As low as the wage is for current employees it is even lower for new employees. Benefits are very high in cost. From what I can see and hear there are a ton of openings because so many current employees are leaving, the rest are looking. They are hireling peer trainers at a dollar an hour more with no gas card or car allowance an expect you to drive all over heck when territories open. Warning you will ruin your car in no time. Not that I ever supported unions but this company really needs one.
