Inconvénients
If you're looking to make real sales money, this is not for you. Promotion from within is very slow and slim, even if you are very motivated. They convey a culture that thrives on not compensating their employees while expecting them to sell millions of dollars in product. Even if you create substantial results good luck getting a raise. The bonus system is a joke. It's not a real sales environment in the least. They don't dangle the carrot, it's tied to the back of your neck and you might get a bite if you're really lucky. If you don't live or are willing to move to Exeter, PA, good luck getting promoted. Even the regional management comes from PA. or is hired externally. I rarely saw promotion from within during my stint at the company,. Hopefully being acquired by LKQ solved a lot of the pain points of being an employee and has offered a lot more opportunities for promotion.
