Pros

The work life balance is second to none. That doesn't mean you don't put your time in to build strong relationships, but you have the freedom to run your territory the way you would like. My boss was easily the best I have ever had. I had fantastic numbers, and if you do this as well you will be given a lot more flexibility. Even when you struggle, they search for ways to get you on the right track. I would definitely recommend this job to anyone who is looking to get some account management experience.

Cons

The bonuses, or commission as they call it, are capped. Each quarter a large part of what you make is a team based number which makes no sense since you operate your territory independently. It isn't up to par with the rest of the industry or other companies. If you want a stress free job that does require some after hours phone calls then this is perfect. The training they offer is very structured, but it doesn't necessarily give you everything. Also this company offers less options, doors, functionality, and accessories than competitors which can be problematic for gaining market share against Kraft Maid, Diamond, and Schuler in certain areas because they just don't offer enough. You can be capped in your base after several years (10+).

Pros

Direct manager cares and has goals in place to help improve the department. The core team is made up of great people that work well together.

Cons

Seems like the plant director is actively and intentionally making the entire plant worse. Zero accountability for disrespecting hourly workers even when it's brought to management's attention. Supervisors have completely checked out and refuse to provide the help needed for their people to succeed. Nonexistent advancement opportunities unless you go to church with or are friends with certain managers. Cliquey front office and improper use of employee information. Little to no diversity in management roles. There is a single manager that's a POC and he's their most recent hire.
