Technical Sales Specialist
Pros: 401(k), High quality co-workers, working with Fortune 500 and Fortune 100 accounts.  Short Term disability plan is excellent (but no one wants to have to use that, right?).
Cons: Sales plans are aimed at not rewarding highly skilled, high performing employees.  Commissioned positions may not receive commission for 3 to 6 months.  Employee rating system limits top rating to a bell curve type distribution, regardless of department member's performance.  If you achieve your quota, during the year, it may be raised to a higher quota before the end of the year.
