Pros

Worked with a great team that knew what they were doing, the benefits were good and got paid every week.

Cons

None except that the company decided to cut my department and centralize it back at corporate. I don't blame them, they are trying to find ways to cut cost.

The opportunity to work within the company all over the world is intriguing for some people.

The selfish and minimal work ethic at a particular branch in the States was enough to be thankful in leaving the company.

So many changes this past year.....merged two business units into one last year

Account executive

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation is good, and company expects a lot from their sales professionals.

Cons

Company has made many decisions to grow the business, but recently eliminated key professionals that were influential on growing the service industry. Recent re-organization has improved a lot of how we do business with our customers, however, I am concerned that they are products based, not long term service providers. Recent changes have actually diminished my commission structure to grow the service business.
