"I love the customers. I don't like the environment."

"I loved the ability to interact with the clients. What I didn't like about being an account manager was getting the blame when something went wrong."

"Love: Close to home.Hate: No future opportunities."

"I love helping customers out. I love to be a solution provider and the first person the customer thinks about when needing my products. I work extremely hard to provide the best service available to my customers at anytime time of the day or night. I love building a strong relationship with customers and meeting new ones on cold calls."

"I love knowing that I am making a difference in the lives of our clients. I try my best to give Mangrove a good name, and I get recognized for it by my Manager. I'm proud of what I do and what we can accomplish as a team. The things I dislike are the lack of tools that would help us do our job more efficiently (resulting in more production). Since it is a smaller company, things like new computers, top-notch systems, fast implementation of software updates, etc. are hard to come by. We have to do with what we have, which is probably the most frustrating part of our job."

"Love the client interaction, incentive plan, my manager, and the fact that there is never a dull moment."

"I love being able to create my own schedule, meet clients in multiple industries, and learning more about unique technologies every day. The tough part about my role is the work that goes behind planning my own schedule including cold calling, cancellations, and intense time management."

"People are so overloaded with work at times it is quite difficult to maintain the timeline neccesary to deliver to the customer on time.The good aspect of the position is there are good people on the crossfunctional teams that go the extra mile to get specific tasks completed."

"Understanding and providing a consulting role for prospective customers can be rewarding and enjoyable. The position itself is interesting enough to maintain an interest in sales."

"Working with Entertainment campaigns was amazing. A lot of fun. But the things I hated were just parts of the overall job (clients changing minds, etc). But it is something I learned to adapt to."

"I love taking care of my customers and being able to manage my own work based on the needs of the client. Problem-solving is a big part of the job and that's what I enjoy."

"I like dealing with customers and the overall job."

"I love the freedom to complete my route as I see fit. The hardest part of sales is selling an item that you are not 100% behind."

"The challenge and autonomy is fantastic. We just do not have the SOPs, manpower or experience of others, not to mention time, to enable us to move into continuous systematic solutions."

"I love the opportunity to direct my own daily schedule and meeting with people of different ages and backgrounds.I dislike the turndowns but I will continue until we can make a sale or at least a quotation.Great way to meet buyers, materials manager, plant manager and engineering teams to develop an opportunity."
