Pros

Exposure to door to door selling. Big brand with some unique products. Company Car. Mostly autonomous role

Cons

Drastic price rises block the ability to earn commission. Some shocking middle management in Melbourne with no idea. Pretending all geographical areas have the same potential for sales regardless of socioeconomic status. All lot of poor quality Chinese products being branded as German, particularly in the battery and air tool range. Not a great deal of support from internal staff, more of an "us and them" approach to sales staff. A lot of money seems to be spent on parties and a lavish drinking culture for senior management and internal staff. Rewards in the wrong areas and a lack of integrity. An extremely low base of $40k

Pros

They have a lot of on site employee amenities with a hybrid work model. Would recommend negotiating as much remote freedom as possible. Office keeps up the cool techy image and they have professional relationships with interesting product prospects.

Cons

Hard to work with as management is not clear on what they want/need from their employees. Higher ups also have had a history of misogyny and discriminatory behaviour that HR may be trying to keep under wraps and manage the perspective that it never existed but if you get to talk with them more on a personal level, there are signs especially from the other men. Also seems that there is a lack of accountability where management don't talk with each other clearly and expect employees to be the middlemen. Either they figure it out or they are shut out from circles. There is also a superficial act of addressing issues because "startup culture" so they move fast. But just as friendly as they start out, they'll ice you out just as quickly. Somebody also passed away recently and the reaction from management was PC at best.
