Pros

Labor is just stimulating enough that your days will be quick, your start time is early, and if you work efficiently you never need to work longer than 9 or 10 hour days.

Cons

The overtime is the only reason this job pays any bills, but, thankfully the role itself is designed for you to then get promoted into an "Account Sales Manager" at 25$ an hour. Unfortunately, you'll be doing a lot more Account Management, and hardly any selling. This is a route job, with a lot of independence and ability to grow a good skillset in the beverage industry. That being said, you have to drive a truck, and deliver the product, and pack out the store, and there is no commission structure or overtime for Account Managers, and the benefit to growing your route is entry's for raffles... or gift cards, not actual money or commission to your check. The opportunities to grow your career are sparce and you will likely need to relocate to get any short-term opportunities for advancement. Also don't expect much of a raise, no matter how much effort you put forward.

Pros

The company itself takes care of their employees better than any employer I have had to date. Full health, dental, and various other programs to make sure you're healthy and not worrying about where the money comes from to pay the doctors. Also 401k plan is included. Pay can be considered fair depending on your living situation and station in life.

Cons

The cons come to the surface when you realize the job that is referred to as a sales position, is consistently hindered by a balancing act of selling and trucking in one position. Trucking tends to be a process role of rules, regulations, and standards that certain personalities will naturally thrive in due to the lack of change. This alters one's thinking about managing relationships with people in the field. What begins to happen is a rep achieves sales numbers as the company applies pressure about in store appearance on shelves and coolers. During which merchandising becomes the main focus, not one's ability to communicate and achieve positive ends. Which in summa caps one's thinking to a ceiling in terms of achieving the art of possible-expansion and influencing people; not things. Just to throw in however the company itself is bar none, despite this particular role's challenges.
