Pros

The people are amazing, depending on the office you worked at, and they have an extremely structured promotion outline that gives you very clear defining metrics that you need to hit in order to continue to promote.

Cons

If you take over a territory that was covered for several years by someone else and is already “mature“ then you’re really not gonna have very many returning sales and your expectation will still be to output the same level of sales revenue, despite having almost no market left to Take over.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
