Vantaggi
Senior management are all great guys. I've personally received loads of great coaching from both Bob and Jeff (CEOs) on multiple occasions.
The structure of the company is geared towards people that want to be their own boss, not work to make someone else a fortune! I'm now one of those people that annoys their friends by saying that self-employed is the way to go! Haha
This is the only company I've worked for where sales representatives promote themselves. Earning promotions is based completely on merit and the guidelines for making it to the next step are spelled out clearly from the beginning.
The best part? The people in my "up-line" all want me to succeed! The Executive Vice Presidents of the company are constantly looking for and coaching new, hardworking, ambitious people to come up and share room at the top.
Svantaggi
For some people, the necessity for hard work is a bit of a roadblock. It's a challenge for sure, but the potential compensation is virtually limitless.
It can also be somewhat competitive - not in a bad or cut-throat way, but more of a friendly, work-out mate, kind of way
