Pros

Everyone in the office is really nice. I loved my co workers and boss but hated my job.

Cons

It's a door to door sales job. You go door to door selling quill business and office supplies. They will tell you in the interview it's Public Relations or that it's an advertising position or that it's a marketing position but it's not. You make 100% commission with no base pay so if you can't close deals you won't make any money at all. And your expected to pay for your own gas. After three days of working there I put over 1000k on my car and spent over $50 in gas....most of the businesses you see will be less than thrilled to have you in their office or store & often you will get thrown out for soliciting which is so embarrassing. Also they will tell you a quill rep was just in there last week bc there is no account management being done whatsoever. They sell you on the idea of being self employed but if your self employed why do you have to show up at 800 for a meeting or your fired. Also, they will give you a recycled territory that has already been worked one to two weeks ago by another quitting sales rep. Stay away and avoid at all costs. There are so many easier and better paying sales jobs out there that actually pay you for all your efforts.
