Pluspunten

Outstanding training with good internal support. There is a strong support system from the broker and manufacturer community to help push sales growth. Depth of product line is at the head of the industry. The corporation is a blue chip company.

Minpunten

Old boy network is very evident both internally and externally. Only the best customers and prospects are really paid attention too. Although you start with a salary, be assured you will be 100% commission. Industry is ultra competitve and you have to have new accounts flowing to fill gaps in lost sales from existing customers due to flat industry growth, closings, pricing issues, credit issues etc...The competition from within(overlapping territories) is also a sight to behold. Overall, the corporation is strong, but be prepared for life on the streets.

Pluspunten

You can make money but it all depends on the orders you get, how fast you can go, how long you can maintain that pace without getting burned out. Definitely a young mans sport, as the do refer to you as "industrial athletes."

Minpunten

Like many industries the hours can be long. For the ones who don't make much on running above rate then you can make up for it in hours. If you soak the hours and run you can definitely make some big money. The turn over rate is extremely high there, even in management. I used to be proud of the union but the teamsters in Cleveland are completely worthless, I would bet they are getting paid under the table to not fight for contract negotiations. When I was there the contract expired and they barely fought for anything, on voting day they literally said they wont back us up if we don't pass this contract....so consider that when you want to work for this place. Also the equipment is so old and broken that people were taking the scanners home just so they could have a good one for the next night.
