Avantages
You won't be micromanaged. That's unless you don't tick off the area manager.
Inconvénients
You will work extremely long hours without any help. How long you ask? Try 14-17 hours a day(Monday-Friday) and sometimes on the weekend. There's only 2 routes that have to service San Antonio, the 7th largest city in the country and surrounding areas while Austin has 4 routes. Area managers and corporate refuses to add another route saying that "it's not in the budget", but will hire another account executives creating more work for the route salesmen. When you figure out how many hours you work compared to your yearly salary, you're only making $14-15 hour. You might as well work at Walmart, HEB, or a fast food place. It will be less of a headache. Customers will constantly call in and you will have to stop what you're doing to deliver product. If you ask the manager for help, he will tell you to "man up"!
