Pros

It is a shame because everyone I communicated with outside the department I worked for were helpful and understanding to the new learner process. They provided more support that my actual department did. A lot of fantastic engineers that know their stuff and know what a real sales person should be.

Cons

The department I worked for were delusional on what a team looks like or how it should work and about sales in general. You are hazed if you do not fit into they're generic old school view of what a sales person should be - despite building a good repertoire with customers and employees outside the office. It was a very lad environment and no room for women, with sexist comments and nasty comments made daily. I was basically bullied out of the job.

Pros

- Decent pay and good benefits - work truck with gas card -good experience

Cons

- management is disconnected from field employees - review process does not reflect employee performance since managers do not go out in field in order to properly assess job performance - poor communication which leads to chaotic project implementation - no standardization of necessary info for each customer site. You walk in completely blind each time you visit a customer you’ve never been to - safety is important, but corporate pushes redundant messaging so frequently i believe it has the opposite of the intended effect - forced to wear long sleeves FR shirts in hot weather even when you are not exposed to fire hazards any more than a standard office employee
