Pros
Independent work and responsibility attain sales targets. Excellent healthcare program if the platinum level is selected for pre-tax salary deductions for the family. Interesting and extensive travel required for the job with a position covering between 5 US states and 2 countries. Good company reputation with clients. Many excellent people to work with.
Cons
Compensation program for sales is not up to standards for the industry. Commissions are not part of the compensation program. Bonus' is only paid formally one time per year, 4 months after the calendar year (fiscal year) ends. Base salary was approximately $25,000 below similar companies in the industry where I have worked. Inflexible business models that are out of date within the industry. Problematic CRM tool. High rate of turnover within support staff and outside sales. Limited opportunity. No additional bonus comp for inside sales support.
