Pluspunten

Overall compensation is great. Training was great, coming from someone with zero engineering background I was able to conceptualize everything and sell comfortably.

Minpunten

Micromanagement at its core. For someone not entirely interested in automation and production, I could not have been less interested in day-to-day happenings and new products etc. That's a fundamental error on my end for taking the job, but I'm mainly posting this for new-grads so they don't make the same mistake and get overwhelmed with the pay, which seems like a lot at that age. But the reality is, I looked around my office and couldn't see myself advancing much further in terms of career, comp, and personal growth. Do what you want! Take a low paying job right out of school in the industry you like and work your butt off. If this is your industry of choice, go for it! Way more rewarding, don't ever settle.

Pluspunten

Fast paced work environment. CRM is the best I have ever had access to. Data tracking and sales insight is top notch. The regional director for TSS in Michigan/Indiana is great to work under. Leads are easily available, the product is great and it’s easy to get in the door places.

Minpunten

Metrics are more focused on quantity over quality. Frequently working 50+ hour weeks. Too many reps per territory and it can create a negative perception. Bonus structure vs straight commission is frusterating. Clear advancement structure however being ranked against peers with different sales targets in frusterating. Feels like a turn and burn type of mentality towards sales reps.
