Pros

as mentioned previously one of the best reasons to strat at Pitney Bowes is if you are interested in going into b2b sales. It is pretty well known that the salary levels make former or current PBers great targets for recruiting by other outside sales companies. During my tenure it was not unusual to average at least one solicitation per month (for 5 years) form a recruiter/headhunter that was looing for pharm reps. It is also a great way to learn the workings of corporate structure and the hierarchy of organizations. A great place to brush up on communicatiopn skills.

Cons

Obviously salary is the first and most often complained part of working for Pitney Bowes. In a nutshell the word potential is bandied about quite often without any real substance behind the claim. It is true that you can make a decent living at it, but like many other things you have to learn the product before you can sell it. More often than not it seems that upper managenment encourages local managers and directors to perpetuate the 100k myth to keep the applicants coming. Seems like it's cheaper to keep the turnover high and the salaries low. Thats it.
