Pros

Macchina aziendale Buoni pasto Indipendenza e flessibilità Grande azienda, competitiva e ottima formazione Ottimi colleghi Gestisci il flusso di lavoro autonomamente

Cons

Lavori prevalentemente da solo passando molte ore in macchina. Non lavori mai in ufficio ma solo presso i clienti della gdo/specializzati quindi devi avere una certa attitudine a questo tipo di lavoro. Devi raggiungere dei target di vendita mensili a volte sfidanti. Spesso é una posizione offerta dopo lo stage per continuare a restare in azienda.

Pros

- Company car (fuel card, insurance, etc) - Good benefits - Great brand exposure/understanding of CPG sales at the retail level - Annual sales meeting is fun, but exhausting - Simple job

Cons

- Micromanaged by leadership (EVERYTHING is tracked) - Extremely repetitive work (not much freedom in creating your schedule, same tasks over and over, etc.) - Dealing with retail management. If you don't have respectful store managers, good luck. A lot of your KPI's are out of your control and your experience relies on your store. - As DOZENS of other people have said, this is a merchandising job - not sales. You are responsible for placing product on the sales floor after consulting with the store (basically asking management who only views you as free manual labor). There is no commission/incentive for producing positive results. - SEASONS: this is the reason why you have this job if you're working with the Walmart channel. You have unrealistic expectations set from leadership to pack out hundreds of heavy cases of candy each holiday season after begging store management for space to place it. Most of the stores' back rooms are a complete mess and a lot of your product is inaccessible. Long days are expected with no additional pay. - Work/life balance: It is frowned upon to work the bare minimum of 40 hours/week. Your stores get backed up while you're on PTO. Overall: an okay role This isn't a bad job by any means, you just need to know what the role entails before taking this job. You need to relocate for any future opportunities within the company.
