Pluspunten

learn alot about sales and product knowledge - if you are willing to teach yourself. Great stepping stone to a real career.

Minpunten

too much to list. Do you have atleast a week to get started. Unfair pay,unreasonable hours, unreasonable management,paycheck deductions and low commissions. The company has grown beyond themselves. The employess have become a number now. Either a positive # or negative # depending on your position and your numbers. Every time they give you a number to work on improving and you suceed - they just find another number to complain about. They run liability insurance on their branch-based vehicles so that they save money, then they back-charge the branch for vehicle repairs when they are damaged. These charges come off the profitability of the branch and thereby affect the commissions of the branch employees while corporate continues to enjoy the profits. They force the branches to charge un-reasonable freight charges on every invoice to pad the profits.Then they complain thats the branches are not charging enough freight. The branch locations have to work their asses off to pay for the warehouses and corporate employees and are still treated like second-hand citizens.

Pluspunten

For such a large company, they move fast. If you demonstrate exceptional talent, it is rewarded much more quickly than other companies. Good decision-making gets a lot of attention.

Minpunten

Low starting pay makes it so that there are not a lot of applicants for entry level positions. Bad employee behavior is tolerated because it's hard to backfill the position.

Pluspunten

I wish if there were anything worth mentioning.

Minpunten

My contract was changed three times in the span of three months. This is the most disorganized company I have ever worked for. As an employee, you are the least of their concerns expect to be asked to stay late, come in early, and take on tasks outside your job description. Due to chronic understaffing, you're pressured into doing extra work, and if you refuse, they will find a way to let you go.
