They try hard ....
Sales Representative (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 28 February 2018
Salary fair, but reduces rapidly after 1 year. Benefits excellent but expensive.
Excellent training for outside sales. Some competition from old timer sales agents who have picked the territory cherries. But the biggest problem is the price of almost all products offered. Good service and quality product has a strong value but you can`t demonstrate these positives when your price is anywhere from 50-200% higher than the key players. Management is indifferent to this; likely as they can do nothing about it. Good step off for future sales positions, but be prepared to move on within the first year unless you are hired to take over an existing territory.
